Dear experts, I can't solve the letter count and then calculate their respective percentages of the total:
example:
Column 1
a
a
b
c
c
c
I need through DAX to be able to count to get the following result:
a: 2
b:1
c:3
and later:
a: 33%
b:17%
c: 50%
please your help!
Hi @JDU ,
try this to get count:
count = CALCULATE(COUNTA('Table'[Column 1]),ALLEXCEPT('Table','Table'[Column 1]))
and to get %:
% = 'Table'[count] / COUNTROWS('Table')
You can also combine two formulas into 1.

Matej
First of all thank you very much for your reply @MatejZukovic
The first equation worked very well, the formula responds well, but the second equation does not, it brings me as a result 100% for each of the characters to count.
Where do you think the mistake might be?
Thanks again!

Hi @JDU ,
previous approach would work when you create column in your backend table.
If you'd like to do the calculation as a measure, try this:
% = [count]/CALCULATE(COUNTA('Table'[Column 1]), ALL('Table'[Column 1]))
