Description

Creates a column that returns the product of two or more numbers or the product of an integer number and a duration.

How does it work in the search window?

Select Create column in the search window toolbar, then select the Multiplication, product operation. You need to specify at least two arguments (Multiply and by). You can add as many by arguments as required.

Argument

Data type

Multiply mandatory

integer, float

by mandatory

integer, float, duration

The data type of the values in the new column is integer / float (when you multiply an integer or float by another number) or duration (when you multiply an integer by a duration).

...

Example

(warning) The examples in this article use values in a data table generated from the following CSV file.

...

from my.upload.sample.data
select split(message, ";", 17) as numbers,
int(numbers) as numbers_int

...

In the my.upload.sample.data table, we want to use the multiply, product by 2 operation on the values in the numbers_int column of our table.

...

Use the operator select... as...  and add the operation syntax to create the new column. These are the valid formats of the Multiplication, product operation:

  • number1 * number2 * number3...

  • mul(number1, number2, number3...)

  • integer * duration

  • mul(integer, duration)

Example

You can copy the following LINQ scripts and try the above example on the my.upload.sample.data table. 

Code Block
from my.upload.sample.data
select split(message, ";", 17) as numbers,
int(numbers) as numbers_int,
numbers_int * 2 as `numbers_int*2`
