Tableau TDA-C01 Tableau Certified Data Analyst Exam Practice Test

Answer : B

The formula in option B calculates the percent difference in sales relative to the same quarter the previous year. It subtracts the sales of the same quarter from the previous year from the current year's sales, and then divides this by the previous year's sales. This gives a percentage change, which aligns with what is shown in the Calculation field of your dataset. The LOOKUP function returns the value of a specified offset from the current row in the partition. In this case, the offset is -4, which means the value of the same measure four rows above the current row. This corresponds to the same quarter of the previous year, assuming the data is sorted by quarter.Reference:

To create a filled map to show the distribution of total Sales by State across the United States, 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 Map tab at the bottom of the workbook to open the Map worksheet. You will see a blank worksheet with no marks.

Drag State from the Dimensions pane to Detail on the Marks card. This will create a map that shows each state as a mark. You may need to zoom in or out to see the whole map.

Drag Sales from the Measures pane to Color on the Marks card. This will create a filled map that shows the distribution of total Sales by State across the United States. The color legend will show you the range of values and colors for Sales.

Optionally, you can adjust the color scheme, transparency, size, and borders of the marks by clicking on the Color menu on the Marks card. You can also add labels, tooltips, or filters to enhance your map.

To filter the table to show the Top 10 NOC based on the number of medals won, 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 Disciplines worksheet.

Click on the Disciplines tab at the bottom of the workbook to open the worksheet. You will see a table that shows the NOC, discipline, and medals for each country.

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

Select Top from the dialog box. This will show you options to filter by the top or bottom values of a field.

Enter 10 in the text box next to By field. This will filter by the top 10 values of Medals.

Select NOC from the drop-down list next to By field. This will filter by the top 10 values of NOC based on Medals.

Click OK to apply the filter. You will see that the table now shows only 10 rows, one for each NOC with the highest number of medals.

Answer : A

To configure the shapes to be much larger than the line, you need to duplicate Population and drag it to the second Marks card. This will create a dual axis chart with two measures on one axis. You can then select Shape on one Marks card and Line on another Marks card, and adjust the size of each mark independently using the Size slider or menu.

In the context of filtering data in Tableau, both string and integer parameters can be used to dynamically filter data. A string parameter can be used to filter text-based values, while an integer parameter is suitable for numerical values. In the provided dataset and result URLs, it appears that a unique identifier or key (which could be a string or integer) is being used to filter specific data entries.Reference:The information is based on the following sources:

To combine two sets, they must have at least one dimension in common. In this case, Customers of 2020 and Top N Customers both have Customer Name as a dimension, so they can be combined using set operations such as union, intersection, or difference. Sellers of 2020 and Top N Products have different dimensions (Seller Name and Product Name), so they cannot be combined.
