Which two of the following are ways to use R scripts in custom expressions? Choose 2 answers
Answer : A, E
There are two ways to use R scripts in custom expressions in Spotfire: registering R scripts as data functions and using the TERR_string() and related functions. Registering R scripts as data functions allows you to create your own functions using R syntax and call them from the custom expression and calculated column dialog boxes. You can also edit the saved expression functions from the Spotfire user interface. Using the TERR_string() and related functions allows you to execute R expressions that have been written as text strings within the custom expression. You can also use other functions such as TERR_integer(), TERR_date(), etc. to specify the data type of the output. The other options are not ways to use R scripts in custom expressions, but rather ways to use property controls or action controls, which are devices that can change the content of a property or trigger a script, respectively.Reference:Registering the TERR Script as an Expression Function,Add your own functions using R,Custom Expressions Introduction
The definition of the R language is...
Answer : D
The R language is a dialect of S, which was designed in the 1980s and has been in widespread use in the statistical community since. The R language provides, among other things, a programming language, high level graphics, interfaces to other languages and debugging facilities. The R language is an open-source software, which means it is freely available to anyone. It can be accessed by a vibrant community of users and developers. The R language is an implementation of the S programming language. It also combines with lexical scoping semantics inspired by Scheme.The project was conceived in 1992, with an initial version released in 1995 and a stable beta version in 2000123.Reference:R Programming Language - Introduction,R Language Definition,R (programming language) - Wikipedia
Which visualization type is like a cross table which contains color instead of numbers?
Answer : A
A heat map is a visualization type that is similar to a cross table, but instead of displaying numbers, it displays colors that represent the values in the cells. A heat map can be used to show the distribution of data across two or more categories using a color gradient. A heat map can also be colored by a third column, which can be selected from the Color by drop-down list in the Cross Table Properties dialog. A heat map can have different color schemes applied to different color scheme groupings, which are containers for one or more axis values that share the same color scheme. To learn more about coloring in cross tables and heat maps, seeColoring in Cross Tables and Heat Maps.Reference:Cross Table Properties -- Colors,Coloring in Cross Tables and Heat Maps,Specifying text color and background color for cross table cells,How to set a custom color scheme for a particular column.

Which namespace contains classes used to interact with visualizations in a document?
Answer : E
The Spotfire.Dxp.Application.Visuals namespace contains classes used to configure visualizations and text areas in a page1. These classes include the abstract base class Visualization, which represents a common base for all visualizations, and its derived classes, such as BarChart, BoxPlot, MapChart, ScatterPlot, etc. Each visualization class exposes properties and methods to access and modify the settings and data of the visualization, such as axes, colors, shapes, filters, markings, etc. The Spotfire.Dxp.Application.Visuals namespace also contains classes for text areas, which are used to display text, images, or HTML content on a page, and classes for various components of visualizations, such as axes, legends, reference lines, etc.Reference:
