What are continuous and discrete field types?

Answer»

Tableau’s specialty LIES in displaying data differently either in continuous format or discrete. Both of them are mathematical terms used to define data where continuous means without interruptions and discrete means are individually separate and distinct.

While the BLUE color INDICATES discrete behavior, the green color indicates continuous behavior. On ONE hand, the discrete view defines the headers and can be easily SORTED, while continuous defines the axis in a graph view and cannot be sorted.
