|---|
derive type:single value:STRINGLESSTHAN('abc','x') as:'stringCompare' |
Output: Generates true in the new column stringCompare, since the first letter of the first string is less than the first letter of the second string.
Column reference example:
| D code |
|---|
derive type:single value:STRINGLESSTHAN(string1,string2) as:'stringCompare' |
Output: Generates a new stringCompare column containing the evaluation of string1 column values being greater than string2 column values.
