What term is used to describe the following picture?
- A . Larger image
- B . Parameter
- C . Set
- D . Hierarchy
- E . Group
C
Explanation:
When you connect to a data source, Tableau automatically separates date fields into hierarchies so you can easily break down the viz. You can also create your own custom hierarchies. For example, if you have a set of fields named Region, State, and County, you can create a hierarchy from these fields so that you can quickly drill down between levels in the viz.

What is this view referred to as in Tableau?
- A . Analytics Pane
- B . Window Pane
- C . Data Pane
- D . Dimensions & Measures
C
Explanation:
Tableau displays data source connections and data fields for the workbook in the Data pane on the left side of the workspace.
The Data pane includes:
Dimension fields C Fields that contain qualitative values (such as names, dates, or geographical data). You can use dimensions to categorize, segment, and reveal the details in your data. Dimensions affect the level of detail in the view. Examples of dimensions include dates, customer names, and customer segments.
Measure fields C Fields that contain numeric, quantitative values can be measured. You can apply calculations to them and aggregate them. When you drag a measure into the view, Tableau applies an aggregation to that measure (by default). Examples of measures: sales, profit, number of employees, temperature, frequency.
For more information on what dimensions and measures are, see Dimensions and Measures, Blue and Green.
Calculated fields C If your underlying data doesn’t include all of the fields you need to answer your questions, you can create new fields in Tableau using calculations and then save them as part of your data source. These fields are called calculated fields.
For more information on calculated fields, see Create Custom Fields with Calculations. Sets C Subsets of data that you define. Sets are custom fields based on existing dimensions and criteria that you specify. For more information, see Create Sets.
Named sets from an MS Analysis Services server or from a Teradata OLAP connector also appear in Tableau in this area of the Data pane. You can interact with these named sets in the same way you interact with other custom sets in Tableau.
Parameters C Values that can be used as placeholders in formulas, or replace constant values in calculated fields and filters. For more information, see Create Parameters.

Suppose I have the following view.
What will be the total number of marks if I drag a new measure to the row shelf vs the column shelf?
- A . If dragged to row shelf: 14 marks; If dragged to column shelf: 7 marks
- B . If dragged to row shelf: 7 marks; If dragged to column shelf: 14 marks
- C . If dragged to row shelf: 14 marks; If dragged to column shelf: 14 marks
- D . If dragged to row shelf: 7 marks; If dragged to column shelf: 7 marks
A
Explanation:
This is a tricky question often asked in the exam.
If we drag a new measure to the row shelf, the following happens:
We now have 2 rows, and the same 7 columns for both these rows. Therefore, 2×7 = 14 marks!
