Multidimensional tables are data structures that allow information to be sorted and analyzed across multiple dimensions. They are commonly used in business intelligence and data analysis. However, there are other synonyms for multidimensional tables. These alternative terms include OLAP cube, pivot table, cross-tabulation, or hypercube. Each of these terms describes the same type of data structure, but they may have slightly different connotations or implications depending on the context. Regardless of the term used, multidimensional tables are essential tools for organizing, analyzing, and presenting complex data sets in a visually intuitive way.
