Tableau Desktop Foundations Practice Question

In Tableau, if you add Order Date to the Columns shelf as the discrete blue pill "Month" instead of the continuous green "Month", what primary difference will you observe in how the data is displayed?

  • The discrete Month shows individual column headers for each month and aggregates within them, whereas the continuous Month creates a single continuous time axis on which marks are positioned.

  • Discrete Month supports dual-axis combinations with other measures, but continuous Month cannot participate in a dual axis.

  • Using a continuous Month automatically filters the view to the latest 12 months, whereas discrete Month keeps all historical dates.

  • The discrete Month displays every exact timestamp in the data, while the continuous Month bins dates and removes the time portion.

Settings & Objectives
Random Mixed
Questions are selected randomly from all chosen topics, with a preference for those you haven’t seen before. You may see several questions from the same objective or domain in a row.
Rotate by Objective
Questions cycle through each objective or domain in turn, helping you avoid long streaks of questions from the same area. You may see some repeat questions, but the distribution will be more balanced across topics.

Check or uncheck an objective to set which questions you will receive.
