# Analyzing Data

Analyzing data in Datawisp is done by combining a series of blocks that replace code to transform data in specific ways (e.g. filters, aggregations, calculations). Users can either create a blank worksheet and work with the blocks themselves, or ask Wispy (our AI assistant) a question about their data in plain English.

Each method has its pros and cons, but both are designed to be well within reach of non-technical users. For beginners, it's recommended to start by asking Wispy a question. Once users gain a little bit of experience with the blocks, they can more confidently create their own sheets.
