Tableau upworks the work speed by minimizing the coding effort.

I am a data science enthusiast and on the way to my journey I have to analyze and plot various graphs.This task was not easy as first we need to implement the code in python then save that output graph. Moreover making a dashboard is very tedious task. Tableau makes it easy as we only need to drag the column to the space and select which type of graph we want. And tadaaa! it's all there.
