To create a histogram on the Quantity field by using bin size of 3, you need to do the following steps:

Open the link to Book1 found on the desktop. This will open the Tableau workbook that uses the Superstore data source.

Click on the Histogram tab at the bottom of the workbook to open the Histogram worksheet. You will see a blank worksheet with no marks.

Right-click on Quantity in the Measures pane and select Create Bins from the menu. This will open a dialog box that allows you to create bins for the Quantity field. Bins are groups of values that are treated as one unit in a histogram.

Enter 3 in the Size of bins text box. This will set the bin size to 3, which means that each bin will contain values that are 3 units apart. For example, one bin will contain values from 0 to 2, another bin will contain values from 3 to 5, and so on.

Click OK to create the bins. You will see a new field named Quantity (bin) in the Measures pane with a # sign next to it.

Drag Quantity (bin) from the Measures pane to Columns on the worksheet. This will create a histogram that shows the distribution of Quantity by bins. You will see bars that represent the frequency or count of values in each bin.

Optionally, you can adjust the width, color, and labels of the bars by using the options on the Marks card. You can also add filters, tooltips, or annotations to enhance your histogram.

To replace the existing data source with the Netflix_2019 data source, you need to do the following steps:

Open the link to Book1 found on the desktop. This will open the Tableau workbook that contains the Movie Durations worksheet.

Click on the Movie Durations tab at the bottom of the workbook to open the worksheet. You will see a bar chart that shows the number of movies by duration for the existing data source.

Go to the Data Source tab at the bottom of the workbook to see the data source page. You will see a table that shows the fields and values from the existing data source.

Click on the drop-down arrow next to the data source name at the top of the page and select Replace Data Source from the menu. This will open a dialog box that allows you to replace your data source with another one.

Select Netflix_2019 from the list of available data sources and click OK. This will replace your existing data source with the Netflix_2019 data source and update your worksheet accordingly. You may need to fix any broken fields or calculations that result from the replacement.

To add the Sales by State sheet in a Show/Hide button to the right side of the dashboard, you need to do the following steps:

Open the link to Book1 found on the desktop. This will open the Tableau workbook that contains the sales dashboard.

Click on the sales dashboard tab at the bottom of the workbook to open the dashboard. You will see a dashboard that shows various charts and filters related to sales data.

Drag Sales by State from the Sheets pane to the right side of the dashboard. This will add the sheet as a floating element on the dashboard. You can resize and position it as you like.

Right-click on Sales by State and select Add Show/Hide Button from the menu. This will add a button that allows you to show or hide the sheet on the dashboard. You can customize the appearance and behavior of the button by clicking on it and using the options on the Marks card.

Optionally, you can drag a vertical layout container from the Objects pane to the right side of the dashboard and place Sales by State and its button inside it. This will help you organize your dashboard elements and align them neatly.

To modify the bar chart to show the percentage of sales for each Subcategory within every Category, you need to do the following steps:

Open the link to Book1 found on the desktop. This will open the Tableau workbook that contains the CategoryPercentage worksheet.

Click on the CategoryPercentage tab at the bottom of the workbook to open the worksheet. You will see a bar chart that shows the total sales for each Subcategory across all Categories.

Right-click on Sales on the Columns shelf and select Add Table Calculation from the menu. This will open a dialog box that allows you to apply a calculation to your measure.

Select Percent of Total from the Calculation Type drop-down list. This will calculate the percentage of sales for each Subcategory out of the total sales for all Subcategories.

Select Category from the Compute Using drop-down list. This will calculate the percentage of sales for each Subcategory within every Category, instead of across all Categories. The total percentage for every Category will be 100%.

Click OK to apply the table calculation. You will see that the bar chart now shows the percentage of sales for each Subcategory within every Category.

To modify the chart to show only min and max values of both measures in each region, you need to do the following steps:

Open the link to Book1 found on the desktop. This will open the Tableau workbook that contains the Line worksheet.

Click on the Line tab at the bottom of the workbook to open the worksheet. You will see a line chart that shows the sales and profit for each month by region.

Drag Month from the Columns shelf to Filters shelf. This will open a dialog box that allows you to filter by different criteria.

Select Range of Dates from the dialog box. This will show you options to filter by a range of dates or values.

Select Minimum and Maximum from the drop-down list next to Month. This will filter by the minimum and maximum values of Month for each region. You can also enter specific values or use the sliders to adjust the range.

Click OK to apply the filter. You will see that the line chart now shows only min and max values of both measures in each region.

Topic 3, Section 3

A reference band is a shaded area that shows a range of values on an axis. You can use a reference band to highlight a target range, a confidence interval, or a standard deviation. In this case, you want to add a reference band that shows the range of values from 0 to 100 on the y-axis. This will create a shaded area behind the bars that indicates the percentage of sales.

To add a reference band, you need to do the following steps:

Click on the Analytics tab on the left side of the workbook to open the Analytics pane. You will see a list of analytical objects that you can drag and drop onto your worksheet.

Drag Reference Band from the Analytics pane to Y-Axis on the worksheet. This will add a reference band on the y-axis that shows the average and confidence interval for all values.

Click on the Edit button on the reference band to open the Edit Reference Band dialog box. You will see options to customize your reference band.

Change the Band From value to 0 and the Band To value to 100. This will change the reference band to show the range of values from 0 to 100 on the y-axis.

Click OK to apply the changes. You will see that the reference band now shows a shaded area behind the bars.

A data source filter is a filter that applies to all the worksheets that use the same data source. It filters the data before any other filters or calculations are applied. You can add a data source filter from the Data Source page by clicking on the Add button next to Filters.

The type of filter that will appear in the Edit Data Source Filters dialog box is a dimension filter on all the sheets. This means that you can choose a dimension from your data source and filter it by values, range, condition, or top/bottom. The filter will affect all the worksheets that use that dimension.

The other types of filters are not data source filters and will not appear in the Edit Data Source Filters dialog box. A table calculation filter is a filter that applies to a table calculation, such as percent of total or running total. A top N condition filter is a filter that shows only the top or bottom N values of a measure or dimension based on a condition. A context filter is a filter that creates a subset of data that other filters can use.

When you sign in to a Tableau Server site from Tableau Desktop and search for a published data source, you will see all the data sources published to the site within the folders to which you have access. You will not see data sources published to other sites or folders that you do not have permission to view. You can also filter your search by project, owner, or tag.

Data interpreter is a feature that helps you clean and structure your data in Excel before importing it into Tableau. It detects and removes any headers, footers, subtotals, or other elements that are not part of the actual data. It also splits any merged cells and fills in any missing values. In this case, data interpreter provides the following results:

It removes the first three rows and the last two rows that contain headers and footers.

It splits the merged cells in column A and fills in the missing values with ''Fiction'' or ''Non-Fiction''.

It does not remove or change any other rows or cells.

Therefore, the number of rows of data that will be ingested into Tableau as values is 17, which is the number of rows left after removing the headers and footers.
