Write a SWITCH statement for a range of Numbers

Hi, I have to write a DAX for a calculated column to group a range of numbers from another column. Just wondering how to do this?

1-8 = "short"

9-15="Medium"

16-30="Long".

 

Many thanks.

hi @1001 

this shall also work:

Column2 =
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    [Column1]<=8,  "Short",
    [Column1]<=15, "Medium",
    [Column1]<=30, "Long",
    "Others"
)

hi @1001 

try like:

Column2 =
SWITCH(
    TRUE(),
    [Column1]>=1&&[Column1]<=8,  "Short",
    [Column1]>=9&&[Column1]<=15, "Medium",
    [Column1]>=16&&[Column1]<=30, "Long",
    "Others"
)
