    This is great context, with simple explanations.
    Is it possible to link the value of the variables to a lower and upper value of another table containing transactional data?

    Hi! Very good video!
    What if I want to create a column in an excising table? referencing the column "source" so it will take the date from de SP

    That's awesome. But how to generate dates between 2 date intervals of same date column? i have a date column 11/11/2021 and in second row its 1/3/2022 how to fill the dates between these 2 dates?

    Really good, it must be it's my third time of watching, mainly for the list.generate. If I had a question, it would be regarding the use of the underscore , and when and why it is needed after 'each' but not always.
    Perhaps a future video, I don't think it's been done.

    • @BIGorilla
      @BIGorilla  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The underscore is short for a function:
      The m language has some short syntaxes that do the same. They allow you to perform an operation on each underlying value. Equivalent are :
      Each _
      Each () => _
      Each (x)=> x
      The version in the video is a short way to write it. To make life easier :)

    • @williamarthur4801

      @@BIGorilla Thanks, I did quite bit of experimentation after watching your 'generate' video, using each _ ,
      List.Generate( () => 1,
      (_)=> _ < 7,
      (_)=> _ + 1 )
      List.Generate( () => 1,
      (A)=> A < 7 ,
      (A)=> A + 1 )
      What I found interesting was that the 'initial function could not be named,
      I first tried to use the _ or 'A' within that as well.
      Richard.

    Hi!
    I have a doubt.
    Instead of using a parameter, how do I reference the StartDate and the EndDate that is already in a columm inside a table?

    • @BIGorilla
      @BIGorilla  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Would there be multiple dates? And do you want multiple calendars?
