Makeovermonday 43

For week 43 for makeovermonday we had this table

How Frequent Is My Type



My problem is:
- I don't know what are all this abbreviation mean
- It is difficult to find the most frequent type
- Even if I know what all this abbreviation mean, I need some time in order to find my type
- It is difficult to understand, what does the information on the left side mean

This is my first work ever for makeovermonday:

It was important for me to understand all abbreviations. I also put filter in order to give the user a possibility to discover their type step by step. With the color on the table I see what is the highest / lowest frequency for each type.

Tableau Table Calculation Function: WINDOW - Functions

The functions which begin with „WINDOW_...“ are also common used in Tableau. Remember! The “WINDOW_” function stays for the offset in data set, so-called WINDOW. It can look like this: 1) You can see the “WINDOW” clearly because of separation line between rows: 2) You limit the “Window” by giving the information about the first and the last row number. In this case, you give Tableau the information about the data offset. Let's have a look at the example with WINDOW_SUM I created a sample with data from Superstore. I would like to have a total sum of Sales in every row. In order to do this I created a calculation field: WINDOW_SUM(SUM([Sales]), FIRST(), LAST()) With this formula I said to Tableau: “Hey Tableau, calculate the total sum of sales from the first till the last row in the data set” And this is the result: Tableau wrote the result (total sum of Sales) in every row. As another option you can cumulate the result in each row and...

I want to understand RegEx! (Part2)

It is already two weeks ago since my last blog post. This two weeks I spent in Scotland. It is a very beautiful country with unforgettable landscaps. However, it is not the topic I want to talk about. In this blog I will continue the topic about the RegEx and its using in Tableau. Tableau offers you four different uses cases of RegEx: REGEXP_EXTRACT If you have data like this: aspirin_20_mg_oral_tablet and you would like to extract onliy 20_mg. What I do is I check my RegEx on this web site: http://regexr.com/ If it is ok, put this RegEx in Tableau function: REGEXP_EXTRACT([0-9][0-9]+[_]+[a-z]+) and extract all "20_mg" REGEXP_EXTRACT_NTH The same like the function before but here you can limit your extract to Nth index. Image you have data like this: aspirin_20565435 and you want to extract only "aspirin_20". So your formula should be: REGEXP_EXTRACT_NTH([a-z]+[0-9], 2) REGEXP_MATCH It is very easy one: Using REGEXP_MATCH we can find if ...

Tableau Number Function: ABS

I have been working with Tableau since 2014, but I have still a feeling that my knowledge about this software not good enough. When I rebuild dashboards from tableau.public I am fascinating how some people can create amazing formulas and thus it makes the calculation of data sets easier. Sometimes I got stuck by creating of graphs and I do some calculations with data in Excel before I visualize them. Otherwise, you can find the definition of every function by creating of calculation field. But, honestly, are this definitions always clearly enough? For me not and I am done by doing long calculations with Excel. 😠 I like my work and I want to have more fun and not do such long calculation with Excel! I took up a challenge and decided to go through every function in tableau in order to understand how they work.  I would like to begin with ABS function.  ABS function is very easy one, as it used to get an absolute value of a number from a negative one. As an examp...
