Tableau Desktop Certified Professional — Question 59

To display data that has both negative and positive quantitative values, Tableau Desktop will display marks by using ________________________ as the default.

Answer options

• A. a sequential palette
• B. the full color range
• C. a diverging palette
• D. a categorical palette

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is C, a diverging palette, which is specifically designed to appropriately represent data with both negative and positive values. Options A and D are not suitable as they are meant for unidirectional data representation. Option B, while it uses a full color range, does not effectively distinguish between the two types of quantitative values.
