Challenge #121: World Cup 2018!

I wanted to add images of the stadiums with lat/long locations of the stadiums on a Tableau dashboard along with the required data on the tournament scheme. However, downloading images is somehow unsuccessful (only half the image URLs worked) and it took too long in my opinion to figure out how to download locations using the Google Maps API. If anyone has tips on these things, I look forward on hearing on that. Conceptually the Tableau part was the easiest part.

Definitely shows I need to dive more into RegEx because I kept wanting to use that, but for sake of time switched over to Text to Columns. Once I get RegEx down, I know I'll be able to do far more, far more quickly!

My solution was pretty bloated, but I got there. Need to study up on RegEx!

Challenge #121 solved!

 

Spent way more time than I should have on shortening the workflow, but it's still rather long.
