About this course

This tutorial covers advanced analytics using Contour. We recommend you complete the Intro to Contour course as a prerequisite.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES
  • Construct multi-path Contour analyses to explore different trends within datasets
  • Use a variety of boards to manipulate and visualize data
  • Transform datasets within Contour via joins and pivots
  • Create and optimize the use of parameters within Contour and Dashboard
  • Develop a shareable Dashboard that allows for further data analysis and drill down.

FOUNDRY SKILLS
  • Create an analysis, understand the data to be analyzed, and then filter down a large dataset to the rows/columns needed.
  • Test hypotheses, develop complex expressions and glean valuable insights.
  • Learn how to add parameters.
  • Explore Contour Dashboard mode, which allows you to present findings from your analysis in an interactive presentation view.
