+e.g. hash function of _key.
+
+##### Ordinal-scaled

+*Ordinal-scaled slicers* slice datapoints with ordinal values;
+the values have some ranking, e.g. time, integer,
+element of `{High, Middle, Low}` and so on.
+
+##### Nominal-scaled
+
+*Nominal-scaled slicers* slice datapoints with nominal values;
+the values denotes categories,which have no order,
