Transform-Data-by-Example (TDE): Extensible Data Transformation in Excel
Summary: Extensible Excel data transformation via TDE synthesizes programs from 3 I/O examples using external logic (source code, DLLs, web services, mappings). End-users reuse libraries and services in spreadsheet workflows, enabling ad-hoc cleaning without custom scripts. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
