2024 Week 01 – Leap Years

Introduction

Happy new year and welcome to 2024! We have new contributors and a few ideas for this year, if you haven’t seen it already, you can find the announcement here.

In case you haven’t noticed yet, this year is a leap year so this weeks challenge aims at identifying those in CRMA. It is not the hardest challenge technically, however as far as I can tell, we are using an undocumented function, which might make it a bit tricky!

Requirements

  • Create the bar chart below
  • Each bar represents one year (1895 – 2001)
  • the length of the bar is represents the “Value” in the dataset (it’s a random number so no insights to be gained here)
  • They are blue by default and red when they are a leap year
  • Notice that 1900 was NOT a leap year, while the year 2000 was. (That is correct)
  • The whole challenge does not need a recipe and all calculations should be done within a compare table in a CRMA dashboard

The resulting dashboard should look something like this:

Most programming languages have a modulo operator. You can use it here as well. 

Dataset
