I want to reference a table column by a variable while creating another column but I can't get the syntax:
t0 = Table.FromRecords({[a = 1, b = 2]}),
c0 = "a", c1 = "b",
t1 = Table.AddColumn(t0, "c", each([c0] + [c1]))
I get the error the record's field 'c0' was not found. It is understanding c0
as a literal but I want the text value contained in c0
. How to do it?
I used this inspired by the accepted answer:
t0 = Table.FromRecords({[a = 1, b = 2]}),
c0 = "a", c1 = "b",
t1 = Table.AddColumn(t0, "c", each(Record.Field(_, c0) + Record.Field(_, c1)))
Another way:
let
t0 = Table.FromRecords({[a = 1, b = 2]}),
f = {"a","b"},
t1 = Table.AddColumn(t0, "sum", each List.Sum(Record.ToList(Record.SelectFields(_, f))))
in
t1
