Tool interfaces in the web application and in the desktop application are identical, and differences in functionality are given in appropiate commments.
The method calculates the growth coefficient of series values for a certain period (X[t]/X[t-N]):
ratio PoP. Previous period.
ratio YoY. Corresponding period of the previous year.
ratio YTD. End of the previous year.
It is included in the group of functions that perform transformations on series.
After the method is applied, in the workbook, based on each selected series a calculated series with a name of the ratio<Period>(<Series_Name>[t])(<Series_Name>) type is created, containing the calculation results. For example:
