Create Bell Curve in Tableau

Question

I am trying to create Bell Curve from data, ie

x = number of shoes y = number of records

From the data, most records, ie women have one pair of shoes, so 1 would be the center of the x axis.

How to approach this? Here is what I have so far

Data Structure

Answer 1

Put "Pair of Shoes" on the columns shelf. Change it do a dimension. I would leave the data type as a number and make it continuous.

Then put SUM(Number of Records) on the rows shelf, and make sure it is continuous.

You'll see a distribution, but it won't look like a bell curve

Answer 2

Use the bar graph. Pairs of shoes becomes the dimensional entry. You can then use the count distinct feature:
