Mod( <Column Number> , <Column Number> )
* Click on the function's arguments above for more details on the input values.
Comments
- The columns need to be attributes with numerical values in the model. Static or calculated numbers can be used as well.
- The math operations are not running on measures (aka 'values' or 'metrics'). The are operating on atomic items in the attribute / column itself. These values can then be subsequently used to drive an aggregated metric.
- For details on how to employ and use this function see the custom column overview.
Different Function types
- As a granular function, it is used in the base SQL query itself.
Examples
This example returns a column with modulo value based on the degree column divided by the radians column.
Mod( [math ops].[degrees], [math ops].[radians])
You can see the effect from this example snippet in column #7, based on the source columns in position #2 and #3.
