        Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("lU1bDoAwCLvKwrchbtkGnGXZGfzx/pHH1PjpB7S0TRkDJJ1HyrvtGhRbM/LPgA2qTvC5DXA/Z2xspH0vTdq44GlBJu9G6mo8wOQ2I7ltqPqC5J6+LBSvy6vehR1FopglbmYNLTAV5rwA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [Source = _t, Min = _t, Max = _t]),
        #"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"Source", type text}, {"Min", type number}, {"Max", type number}}),
        #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Custom", each List.Min ( List.RemoveItems( List.Transform( Text.Split( Text.Replace(Text.Replace([Source], "to "," "), "  "," "), " ") , each Number.FromText(_)) , {0}))),
        #"Added Custom1" = Table.AddColumn(#"Added Custom", "Custom.1", each if  List.Max ( List.RemoveItems( List.Transform( Text.Split( Text.Replace(Text.Replace([Source], "to "," "), "  "," "), " ") , each Number.FromText(_)) , {0})) = List.Min ( List.RemoveItems( List.Transform( Text.Split( Text.Replace(Text.Replace([Source], "to "," "), "  "," "), " ") , each Number.FromText(_)) , {0})) then null else List.Max ( List.RemoveItems( List.Transform( Text.Split( Text.Replace(Text.Replace([Source], "to "," "), "  "," "), " ") , each Number.FromText(_)) , {0})))
