Create Bell Curve in Tableau


I am trying to create Bell Curve from data, i.e.

x = number of shoes y = number of records

From the data, most records, i.e. women have one pair of shoes, so 1 would be the center of the x axis.

How to approach this? Here is what I have so far

Solution

  • Put "Pair of Shoes" on the columns shelf. Change it do a dimension. I would leave the data type as a number and make it continuous.

    Then put SUM(Number of Records) on the rows shelf, and make sure it is continuous.

    You'll see a distribution, but it won't look like a bell curve
