To create a histogram on the Quantity field by using bin size of 3, you need to do the following steps:

Open the link to Book1 found on the desktop. This will open the Tableau workbook that uses the Superstore data source.

Click on the Histogram tab at the bottom of the workbook to open the Histogram worksheet. You will see a blank worksheet with no marks.

Right-click on Quantity in the Measures pane and select Create Bins from the menu. This will open a dialog box that allows you to create bins for the Quantity field. Bins are groups of values that are treated as one unit in a histogram.

Enter 3 in the Size of bins text box. This will set the bin size to 3, which means that each bin will contain values that are 3 units apart. For example, one bin will contain values from 0 to 2, another bin will contain values from 3 to 5, and so on.

Click OK to create the bins. You will see a new field named Quantity (bin) in the Measures pane with a # sign next to it.

Drag Quantity (bin) from the Measures pane to Columns on the worksheet. This will create a histogram that shows the distribution of Quantity by bins. You will see bars that represent the frequency or count of values in each bin.

Optionally, you can adjust the width, color, and labels of the bars by using the options on the Marks card. You can also add filters, tooltips, or annotations to enhance your histogram.

To split the Customer Name field into two fields named First Name and Last Name, you need to do the following steps:

Open the link to Book1 found on the desktop. This will open the Tableau workbook that uses the Superstore data source.

Go to the Data Source tab at the bottom of the workbook to see the data source page. You will see a table that shows the fields and values from the Superstore data source.

Right-click on Customer Name in the table and select Split from the menu. This will split the field into two fields based on a separator, which is a space by default. You will see two new fields named Customer Name - Split 1 and Customer Name - Split 2 in the table.

Right-click on Customer Name - Split 1 and select Rename from the menu. Type First Name as the new name and press Enter. This will rename the field as First Name.

Right-click on Customer Name - Split 2 and select Rename from the menu. Type Last Name as the new name and press Enter. This will rename the field as Last Name.

Open the link to Book1 found on the desktop. This will open the Tableau workbook that contains the Movie Durations worksheet.

Click on the Movie Durations tab at the bottom of the workbook to open the worksheet. You will see a bar chart that shows the number of movies by duration for the existing data source.

Click on the drop-down arrow next to the data source name at the top of the page and select Replace Data Source from the menu. This will open a dialog box that allows you to replace your data source with another one.

Select Netflix_2019 from the list of available data sources and click OK. This will replace your existing data source with the Netflix_2019 data source and update your worksheet accordingly. You may need to fix any broken fields or calculations that result from the replacement.

Open the link to Book1 found on the desktop. This will open the Tableau workbook that contains the SalesVSProfit worksheet.

Drag Distribution Band from the Analytics pane to Profit on the Rows shelf. This will add a distribution band on Profit that shows the average and confidence interval for each Sub-Category.

Click on the Edit button on the distribution band to open the Edit Distribution Band dialog box. You will see options to customize your distribution band.

Change the Band From value to -1 and the Band To value to 1. This will change the distribution band to show the standard deviation from -1 to 1, which means one standard deviation below and above the average.

Click OK to apply the changes. You will see that the distribution band now shows a narrower range of values for Profit.
