Visual Analytics with Tableau
By :
In Tableau Desktop, you can run statistical analyses with only a few clicks. Tableau's advanced analytics tools include distribution bands, trend lines, forecasts, and clustering. With these tools, you can tackle analytical questions that cannot be answered with simple descriptive visualizations. But they don't return simple summary tables as results; instead, as Tableau is primarily a visual analytics tool, the output is added to the charts you create.
In addition to the built‐in analytics tools, it is possible to integrate Tableau with different programming languages for more sophisticated, customized analytics projects. This integration of Python, R, and MATLAB will be covered in the second half of this chapter.
By the end of this chapter, you will be able to:
