"run through" a tabular

Hi all,

Do you have any ideas to correctly say the following sentence in coorect english: "I run through a tabular". Actually I use "run through" in order to say "walk", "go through" but I can not find the appropriate verb for the context "tabular, matrix". I know "scroll through" is not also correct for my context.

Thanks

Hi Freddy, Welcome to the Forum. I think you are referring to what in English we call 'a table', rather than 'a tabular'. A set of data, organized in rows and columns?

You could say ' I went through / scrolled through / looked through/ a table'. 'Scrolled' is only if it is on a computer screen. There are other ways to say it, too.

Best wishes, Clive
