What is the use of the LEN function in tableau

This recipe explains what is the use of the LEN function in tableau

Recipe Objective - What is the use of the LEN function in Tableau?

The LEN function in tableau returns the character count or length of the string specified. It is a widely used function of tableau.

Steps to create LEN function.

Step 1 > Connect the "NFL Offensive Player stats, 1999-2013.xlsx" data set.

Step 2 > Create "Len Player" dimension calculated field using LEN([Player]) calculation.

Step 3 > Drag the "Player" dimension and drop it onto the row shelf.

Step 4 > Drag the "Len Player" dimension and drop it onto the row shelf on the right of the Player dimension.

Our visualization using the LEN function is Ready!
