Why negative numbers cannot be detected by the "Conditional column"

Hi all,

I am trying to add a conditional column to categorize column FR, however the negative numbers cannot be detected as shown below.

Kindly please advise how to solve it.

This is a logic error. Every possible numeric value is satisfied by your first 2 conditions, so you will only get A or B. Delete the second condition ( if FR <= 35 then B) and everything should work fine.

Hi @d_gosbell 

 

I've tried your method, however, the correct values do not seem to fall into the correct category that I have intended it to be in. 


Here is the logic I want to apply:

  1. If X>35 then A
  2. If 5<X<35 then B
  3. If X<=5 then C

How would I go about doing this?

Thank you for your reply!

 

Hi @d_gosbell,

Pls ignore the above question, your method worked.

Thanks!!
