Tableau Exam TDA-C01 Topic 4 Question 30 Discussion

Actual exam question for Tableau's TDA-C01 exam
Question #: 30
Topic #: 4
[All TDA-C01 Questions]

You want to show the cumulative total of each year for every state.

Which quick table calculation should you use?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

the rank function returns the rank of each row within the partition of a result set. The rank of a row is one plus the number of ranks that come before the row in question.

To answer your question, we need to apply the rank function to the Avg Score column and sort it in descending order. Then we can find the rank score value for Student ID 4220 by looking at the corresponding row.

Here is how the table would look like after applying the rank function and sorting:

As you can see, the rank score value for Student ID 4220 is1.

VTD Growth? What is this, a vampire themed accounting exam? Definitely going with Running Total on this one.

Year Over Year Growth? Really? That's not what we're trying to do at all. This exam is rigged!

Definitely not Year Over Year Growth, that would show the percentage change from one year to the next.

Hmm, I thought YTD Total would be the way to go. But Running Total makes sense too. Guess I'll have to think this one through.
