Ok I think I'm finally done with the pinncacle of tableau based anagram solving, the latest tweaks allow you to search your word on google for a definition! Inspired by my lack of vocabulary and not knowing what 'ennoble' meant :/ @tableaupublic

I made a new iteration of my Countdown workbook from a couple years ago. It now uses a random number generator and paramater actions to build up your words like the gameshow, also some QOL tweaks. Thanks to @chris_vizes for showing me the rng method :)

I made a '3D' map in tableau.

Had a go at #WorkoutWednesday week 6 courtesy of @AnnUJackson. I had to cheat to figure out why dates as numbers work and still have no idea why +2 works. Also I think it's silly that making tables in tableau is this much hassle. Learnt a lot, tyty.

@bcawells @infolabUK Excellent, I'll definitely keep an eye out

[Tim @thenumberstim]

@bcawells @infolabUK Thanks, I'll have to go back and revisit! although my chart was on a log scale so I may have to do some dual axising as opposed to reference lines maybe

[Tim @thenumberstim]

@chris_vizes sounds like a plan, I too spent a long time sitting looking at the regex haha.

[Tim @thenumberstim]

I've got a first iteration of a dashboard I'm making that plays countdown for you. Basically a big anagram solver. I think its functional, but am struggling to make it not look like trash. So any ideas on that or any interesting metrics would be fab.

@chris_vizes tyty, I had a question to ask you actually Chris about how you selected things randomly, like the random question selector for the tableau exam prep. I want to eventually add in the functionality to randomly select vowels/consonants

[Tim @thenumberstim]

@danstill97 love a record signing

[Tim @thenumberstim]

@CraigStevendata @Datajedininja this viz is such a good idea, unfortunately my parents did this in a doorframe and I outgrew the door :(

[Tim @thenumberstim]

Continuing my efforts to get better at tableau on the bench with another #WOW2021. A table calc based challenge that and I think took me far too long so thanks for the challenge @ItsCandraM, @AnnUJackson, @LukeStanke, @_Lorna_Brown, and @HipsterVizNinja

^(?!(?:[^a]*+a){2})(?!(?:[^e]*+e){2})(?!(?:[^i]*+i){2})(?!(?:[^l]*+l){2})(?!(?:[^m]*+m){2})(?!(?:[^r]*+r){2})(?!(?:[^s]*+s){2})(?!(?:[^t]*+t){2})(?!(?:[^u]*+u){2})[MLSTUIAER]+$

[Tim @thenumberstim]

Another fun day honing the craft on the bench; including but by no means limited to some tableau making WOW dashboards and a very poor use case of regex in alteryx that can be used to find the best countdown word e.g.MLSTUIAER

Had a go at #MakeoverMonday for the first time in a long time. People are cycling more as a result of covid by the looks of it.

@VizWizBI & @TriMyData

[Tim @thenumberstim]

Trying to get back into using this and also back into tableau/alteryx whilst I'm on bench. Went for a nice easy challenge from a couple of years ago courtesy of @VizWizBI to kick off the year
