You need a minimum screen resolution of about 700 pixels width to see our exercises. This is because they contain diagrams and tables which would not be viewable easily on a mobile phone or small laptop. Please use a larger tablet, notebook or desktop computer, or change your screen resolution settings.

Open the Power BI report in the above folder.  It should contain Abba songs released in the 1970s and 1980s:

The order may not be the same, but the report contains nearly 100 bundles of Swedish goodness.

Create a column chart to compare the number of songs released in each year:
