    This section is a practical example that will help you apply your skills in practice with real data. The exercise is divided into two parts. In the first part, we will test several ways to connect our data. You already studied joins in SQL. Here, you will see how to apply joins in a Tableau context. You will also learn about data blending, and current best practices. By the end of the exercise, you will create three charts. Each of these charts analyzes a different aspect of a real-life dataset. We will group the charts in a dashboard and add a filter, applying it to all three charts at the same time.
