Of course! Follow along:

Right click on any measure, and choose Discrete as shown:

Once you do this, the green pill becomes blue in colour, indicating that it is now Discrete!

Explanation

Follow along to get the correct answer:

Drag Country to the view, and then Patents to the Size Mark on the Marks shelf as follows :

2) But, this isn't all right? We need to focus on the year 2013. This can be done by using the year column as it is (continuous) in the filter shelf, or by converting it to discrete first and then using it:

2.1 As it is (continuous)

2.2 Converting to discrete first & then using it

and then :

3) We can now see that France, with 485 has the 2nd most number of patents for the year 2013

You should use a relationship instead of a join for two data sets when the data sets include similar data aggregated at different levels of detail. A relationship is a way of combining data from different tables based on common fields without creating a single table with all fields. A relationship allows you to query data from multiple tables as needed and preserve the level of detail of each table. A relationship is useful when you have data sets that are aggregated at different levels of detail, such as sales by region and sales by product. A relationship can match data from different levels of detail without creating null values or duplicate rows. The other options are not valid situations for using a relationship instead of a join for two data sets. The data sets include similar data aggregated up to the highest level is not correct, because a relationship is not needed when both data sets have the same level of detail. You can use either a relationship or a join in this case, depending on your preference and performance. The data sets are in two separate tables within a single spreadsheet is not correct, because a relationship is not limited by the location or format of the data sets. You can use a relationship to combine data from different sources or connections, such as databases, files, or web services. To use both data sets across multiple sheets in a visualization is not correct, because a relationship does not affect how you use data in your visualization. You can use either a relationship or a join to create multiple sheets and dashboards with your data sets.

Explanation

Measure names and values CANNOT be deleted in Tableau like other columns can. These are auto-generated.

Calculated Fields, and Number of records can both be deleted.

You can change the scope of a reference line by choosing one of the following options: Per Pane, Entire Table, or Per Cell. The scope determines how many reference lines are added to the view and how they are calculated. Per Pane adds one reference line for each pane in the view. Entire Table adds one reference line for the entire table in the view. Per Cell adds one reference line for each cell in the view

Exporting the visualisation gives us a static view of the visualisation.

It is NOT possible to interact with it, use filters, or dynamically enter anything in a visualisation exported PDF.

In Tableau Desktop, you can save views as PDF files rather than printing them as hard copies. You do not need to have Adobe Acrobat installed on your computer.

When you print an individual sheet to PDF, filters in the view are not included. To show filters, create a dashboard containing the sheet and export the dashboard to PDF. (IMPORTANT)

Tree maps size begins from maximum in top left to smallest in bottom right.

See below to learn how to create a TreeMap and add colours to it:

You should use a union when you have two tables with similarly named columns of data that you want to combine. A union is a method for combining data by appending rows of one table onto another table. The tables that you union must have the same number of fields, the same field names, and the same data types2

Using the Sample superstore as a reference, click on the manage metadata icon as follows:

We can rename a particular column name to make it easier to remember and use in Tableau. Let's change Order ID to oID as shown:

Now, we'll see oID when using this data source in Tableau. This WILL NOT affect the original data source. The remote field name let's us see what the name of the column is in the ORIGINAL Data source.
