distribution.

Procedure:

1. Open Tableau:
○ Launch Tableau software and connect to your dataset (e.g., Excel file, CSV, database, etc.).
2. Drag Data to Tableau:
○ Once the data is loaded, go to the “Data” pane on the left side.
○ Drag the field (e.g., sales, age, etc.) you want to analyze into the “Rows” shelf.
3. Create Histogram:
○ From the "Show Me" panel on the right, select the Histogram chart type.
○ Tableau will automatically create a histogram based on your selected field.
4. Adjust the Number of Bins (Optional):
○ If needed, right-click on the field in the "Bins" shelf and select Edit to adjust the number
of bins or their size to fit your analysis.
5. Customize the Histogram (Optional):
○ You can customize the appearance by changing colors, adding labels, or adjusting the axis
settings.
6. View the Histogram:
○ Your histogram will appear on the Tableau workspace, showing the distribution of your
selected data.

Output:
Result:
The histogram will display the distribution of data, with bars representing different ranges (bins)
of the selected variable. This helps to visualize patterns, trends, and the frequency of data points within
each range.

Creating a Motion Chart Using Tableau
Date: 09/10/2024

Aim:
To create an interactive motion chart in Tableau that visualizes changes in data over time, allowing
users to track patterns and trends dynamically.

Procedure:

1. Open Tableau: Launch Tableau Desktop and select "File" > "New" to start a new workbook.
2. Connect to Data: Click on "Connect to Data" and choose your data source (e.g., Excel, CSV, or
any other database).
3. Select Data: Import the dataset you want to visualize. Ensure it contains a time-based column (e.g.,
Date) and numerical data.
4. Drag and Drop Fields:
○ Drag the Date field into the "Columns" shelf.
○ Drag a numerical field (e.g., Sales, Profit) into the "Rows" shelf.
5. Enable Motion Chart:
○ Drag a dimension (e.g., Region, Category) into the "Pages" shelf.
○ Drag a measure (e.g., Profit, Sales) into the "Size" or "Color" shelf to differentiate the data
points.
6. Adjust the Pages Shelf: In the "Pages" shelf, click the dropdown to set how the motion chart
animates (e.g., by year, quarter, or month).
7. Play the Motion Chart: Click the play button on the Pages shelf to see the data evolve over time
as a motion chart.
8. Customize the Chart: You can adjust the size, colors, or labels to make the chart more visually
appealing and easier to understand.
Output:

Result:
A dynamic motion chart is created in Tableau that allows you to visualize how data points (e.g.,
sales, profit, or other metrics) change over time. The motion chart updates automatically as the data is
animated, providing a clear view of trends and changes in the dataset over a given time period.
