Nice challenge. Very subtle solution that might trip people up…I love those! http://www.vizwiz.com/2018/01/workout-wednesday-week-4-2018.html
I really wanted to just write SQL code and display the results in Tableau…but I played nice and did it in Tableau only.

Here’s my version:

Is the soultion posted after Wednesday?
You can download the solution at anytime from the Tableau Public links.
Hi guys,
I liked this challenge and I did it after had a look at the solution.
However, I couldn’t understand why I need to use a “set” otherwise it will not work.
In my mind, a calculated field like below being a filter of TRUE should work.
[sum2015]>[sum2014] and [sum2016]>[sum2015] and [sum2017]>[sum2016]
But not…Just when I use this calculated field inside a “set”.
Why is this?
I posted my failed solution as well and maybe someone can have a look at it.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Where can I find the solution for this? Please help!
Hi,
I’ve searched for it too!
Click on the image in the task ;))
Didn’t really get the limitations of this one. After reviewing other people’s solution, it looks like calculations were used by all: https://public.tableau.com/views/WOW2018-Week4-TrickySimpleTable/WOW2018-Week4?:language=en-US&:display_count=n&:origin=viz_share_link
