Didn't know anything actually about tableau! i knew that tableau is the top visualization software across all Softwares without taking the experience to use it or visual something from a specific dataset or a separate excel sheet! But now I'm able to visualize and make somethings at a beginning level and that's the starting point for me ! Eager to know more and more about tableau with it's advanced level and all the techniques.
