if else condition with between operator
Hi,
I am using M language and adding a new column in table.
I need to write if condition in this line.
I am writing if condition like this:
if [Month] between 2 and 4 then "yes" else "no"
Now here I am getting error for between key word.
Please tell me what is the error and what is the correct way of writng this condition.
Thanks

Hi
You can do this
if [Month] >= 2 and [Month] <= 4 then "yes" else "no"

Hi Erik,
Thanks for your reply.
Yes you are right. This is also a another way to do this.
But wanted to know if we can write this with Between Keyword as I was trying to write.
Any way I will use the way you have suggested.
Thanks

In Power Query, there's no "between" keyword, you can only use operators to achieve this kind of logic as donsvensen suggested.

Regards,
The following should work:
IF
(
AND Operational condition
(
[Month]>= 2, [Month]<=4 Conditional statement being evaluated
),"YES", Result is condition is TRUE
"NO" Result is condition is FALSE
)Written another way...
IF(AND([Month]>= 2, [Month]<=4),"YES","NO")
