Returns |
ENDSWITH function is ideal for matching based on patterns for any data type. If you need to match strings using a fixed number of characters, you should use the RIGHT function instead. See RIGHT Function.String literal example:
endswith(tweets,'?') |
Output: Returns true if last letter of the tweets column value is "?".
example:
endswith(tweets,`{hashtag}{1,9}`) |
Output: Returns true if the tweets column ends with 1-9 hashtag values. Otherwise, the returned value is false.
Regular expression example:
if(endswith,myNum,/([01][0-9][0-9]|2[0-4][0-9]|25[0-5])/),'myNum - valid','myNum - error') |
Output: Returns myNum - valid if the value of the myNum column ends with a value between 0-255. Otherwise, myNum - error is returned.
