This is the code repository for Mastering Tableau, published by Packt. It contains all the supporting project files necessary to work through the book from start to finish. ##Instructions and Navigations All of the code is organized into folders. Each folder starts with a number followed by the application name. For example, Chapter 2.
The code will look like the following:
IF [Actual/Forecast] = "Actual"
THEN SUM([World Indicators].[Country B Population])
ELSE PREVIOUS_VALUE(0) * [Select Country B Forecast] + PREVIOUS_VALUE(0)
END
- Chapter 2, All about Data - Getting Your Data Ready, makes light use of Adobe Acrobat. Access to SQL Server is helpful in a few places, especially in Chapter 4, All about Data - Data Densification, Cubes, and Big Data.
- Chapter 7, Beyond the Basic Chart Types, assumes access to Inkscape to complete two exercises (Inkscape is an open source vector drawing application that is similar to Adobe Illustrator).
- Access to Tableau Server is helpful in a few places, especially Chapter 12, Interacting with Tableau Server, where permissions for publishing data sources and editing in the web authoring environment are assumed.
- Access to Rserve is assumed for Chapter 13, R Integration. RGui and RStudio are also helpful but not strictly required.
