• Question 152:

  What term is used to describe the following picture?

  

  A. Larger image

  B. Parameter

  C. Set

  D. Hierarchy

  E. Group

  Correct Answer: C

  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.

• Question 158:

  Which of the following can help us focus on specific data without removing data in the visualization?

  A. Highlighters

  B. Sets

  C. Clusters

  D. Filters

  Correct Answer: A

  From the official documentation:

  When you have a view with a large amount of data you might want to explore your data interactively and highlight a specific mark or group of marks while still maintaining the context of where those marks show in your view. To do this you can turn on the Highlighter for one or more discrete fields that are included in your view and that affect the level of detail Example-Here we just want to focus on Public Affairs college dimension, but don't want to filter out or remove the rest of the data:

  

  Note that filtering is not the correct option since that would REMOVE the data that doesn't match the filtering criteria.
