Hello community,
I struggle with the following request:
I count the occurence of a certain value (here 50) in multiple columns with this query
let
source =
#table(
{"Width A", "Width B", "Width C"},
{{50, 50, 50}, {40, 50, 50}, {40, 40, 40}, {45, 40, 40}}
),
#"Changed Type" = Table.TransformColumnTypes(source,{{"Width A", Int64.Type}, {"Width B", Int64.Type}, {"Width C", Int64.Type}}),
#"Count 50&45" = Table.AddColumn(#"Changed Type", "Count", each
List.Count(
List.Select(
Record.ToList(
Record.SelectFields(_, {"Width A", "Width B", "Width C"})
), each _ = 50
)
)
)
in
#"Count 50&45"
this shall now also count the number 45, so that the fourth row in the example returns 1
How can I achieve this? It sounds so simple, but I can't figure it out...
thanks a lot in advance
Solved! Go to Solution.
OMG... unbelievable... I knew the solution would be simple, but these syntax errors always give me rest...
Thanks so much.
Tip: If you need to check for more than just a couple of values, you can use List.Contains instead of a bunch of comparisons combined with "or".
For example, instead of
each _ = 50 or _ = 49 or _ = 48 or _ = 47 or _ = 46 or _ = 45
write the following:
each List.Contains({50,49,48,47,46,45}, _)
Thanks, @AlexisOlson , I was looking for something similar to the IN statement in DAX, but wasn't succesfull.
This defenitely helps!
Change each _ = 50 to
each _ = 50 or _ = 45
