2024 Week 3 | Sigma: Can you choose the right value?

Introduction

Welcome to week Three! This week, we’ll build off of the skills from last week. I strongly advise checking it out before tackling this one. 

This challenge is meant to be a little tricky, but I have faith in you! This week will help you learn when to choose the correct option. Sigma often offers multiple solutions to the same or very similar outcomes. 

In this challenge, we’ll create a way for end users to choose what to display and what level of granularity to show and have a dynamic label. 

 Good Luck!
