how to use list.generate to pass as a loop
- 7 years ago
Through research, I found the solution:
= Table.AddColumn( #"Added Custom2", "Count", each List.Sum( List.Generate( () => [Count=List.Count( Table.SelectRows( #"Added Custom2", (C) => C[Tix] = [Tix]-Continue) [Column1]), Continue =1], each [Continue]<=10, each [Final_Item = [Final_Item], Continue =[Continue]+1], each [Count])))
Hi theo ,
Based on your description, I still a little confused about your scenario.
If it is convenient, could you share the data sample with table format and your desired output so that we could help further on it?

Basically I am trying to count the number of rows of tix based on the difference with current tix value. Below is the snippet. It is the same as putting a range criteria like (Tix >=current Tix-5 and Tix <=current Tix-1)
like for value 6,991,905 the count will be only 1 (which is 6991904) which is within (6991904 to 69991905).
+-------------+------------+ TIX |TIX count | 5,000,243 | 0 | 6,991,904 | 0 | 6,991,905 | 1 | 6,991,906 | 2 | 6,991,907 | 3 | 6,991,908 | 4 | 7,000,234 | 0 | +-------------+------------+
I simplify the problem but I will be using the looped range in more complicated formula like Tix - 1/2 x2+41/2 x.
In this case I want to count the rows equal to that equation where x could be from 1 to 10.

Hi v-piga-msft
Tried another code based I found online. This also returns an error.
= Table.AddColumn( #"Renamed Columns", "Count", List.Sum( List.Generate( () => [Continue = 1], each [Continue]<6, each [Count = List.Count( Table.SelectRows( #"Renamed Columns", (x) => x[Tix]-[Continue]= [Tix]))[Column1]], each [Count])))
