This gets a list of dinosaurs and gives it the name dinosaurs. The output is automatically shortened because it’s very long:

There are a lot of dinosaurs in the list:

This gives the second dinosaur in the list:

Each dinosaur has a wealth of information associated with it, which you can retrieve with EntityValue. Here’s an image of the second dinosaur:

Get the weight of the second dinosaur:

Get the name, an image, and the weight of the second dinosaur:

Sometimes data may be missing. The weight of the first dinosaur is not available:

Get a random sample of 10 dinosaurs. Run the code again to get a different sample:

Get the name, image, and weight of a random sample of dinosaurs:

Format the dinosaur data as a table:

Weights in the table are both single values, like , and ranges, like . To sort the table by weight, you have to first convert the ranges to single values. You can do that easily with a rule that replaces intervals with their average values (their “means”):

Now you can sort the data by weight, which is the last element of each entry:

Make a table sorted by weight:

Deploy the dinosaur table to the Wolfram Cloud, where anyone can visit it. The table updates each time it’s visited:
