Hello, I have this M code for power query.
Text.Start([Day of Week Name],3)
I an trying to add if statment that if text says Thursday then do 5 caracters instead of 3.

I manage to get it to work with this:
if [Day of Week Name] = "Thursday" then Text.Start([Day of Week Name],5) else Text.Start([Day of Week Name],3)
But I think there is better and shorter way to write this code.
If anyone has better solution please let me know.
