Hello,
My data have a pattern, generally of 4 rows, but sometimes it breaks by 3 or 5 rows.
I am looking for solution to start again the "pattern_index" from zero every time I have TRUE in the "pattern" column.
As now I use Number.Mod([index], 4) in the "patten_index".
Thanks in advance
| index | pattern | pattern_index |
| 0 | TRUE | 0 |
| 1 | FALSE | 1 |
| 2 | FALSE | 2 |
| 3 | FALSE | 3 |
| 4 | TRUE | 0 |
| 5 | FALSE | 1 |
| 6 | FALSE | 2 |
| 7 | FALSE | 3 |
| 8 | TRUE | 0 |
| 9 | FALSE | 1 |
| 10 | FALSE | 2 |
| 11 | FALSE | 3 |
| 12 | TRUE | 0 |
| 13 | FALSE | 1 |
| 14 | FALSE | 2 |
| 15 | FALSE | 3 |
| 16 | TRUE | 0 |
| 17 | FALSE | 1 |
| 18 | FALSE | 2 |
| 19 | FALSE | 3 |
| 20 | TRUE | 0 |
| 21 | FALSE | 1 |
| 22 | FALSE | 2 |
| 23 | TRUE | 3 |
| 24 | FALSE | 0 |
| 25 | FALSE | 1 |
| 26 | FALSE | 2 |
| 27 | TRUE | 3 |
| 28 | FALSE | 0 |
| 29 | FALSE | 1 |

Hi @Ara_Karapetyan,,
Fastest solution:
let
Source = Table.FromRows(Json.Document(Binary.Decompress(Binary.FromText("XZArDoAwEAXvshrRfS20SAQoFB/V9P7XgATTQU52J5m8Wi3YYNdxr9aGav7CtuznRwJFUOq1EacJlEGl12acPBDZ4kInYzwR2eMTVAZ5IbJJWEe/ebiPIn6ZJCaJGylDZZK6pPYA", BinaryEncoding.Base64), Compression.Deflate)), let _t = ((type nullable text) meta [Serialized.Text = true]) in type table [index = _t, pattern = _t]),
ChangedType = Table.TransformColumnTypes(Source,{{"pattern", type logical}, {"index", Int64.Type}}),
IndexPattern =
[ p = List.Buffer(ChangedType[pattern]),
lg = List.Generate(
()=> [ x = 0, y = 0 ],
each [x] <= List.Count(p) -1,
each [ x = [x]+1, y = if p{x} = true then 0 else [y]+1 ],
each [y] )
][lg],
Ad_IndexPattern = Table.FromColumns(Table.ToColumns(ChangedType) & {IndexPattern}, Table.ColumnNames(ChangedType) & {"Index Pattern"})
