Continuous and Discrete Fields

In Tableau, fields are classified as continuous or discrete, determining how they are visualized:

  • Continuous fields represent numeric data with a range of values, making them ideal for visualizations like line graphs and histograms. These fields are visually represented in green;

  • Discrete fields consist of distinct values or categories, often used in bar charts or grouped visualizations. These fields are visually represented in blue.

Let's now summarize the key differences between these types of fields:
