if else evaluation method in Qlikview

Anonymous — Wed, 25 Nov 2020 16:16:04 GMT

Hello,

I would like to understand how Qlikview evaluates the "if else" conditional statement used in chart expressions.

For example: if(1=1, 'TRUE', if(2=2,'TRUE','FALSE'))

In this example, I know that the output will be 'TRUE' but my question is whether Qlikview will still evaluate the else expression or not?

Regards,

Dev

Not sure if this has changed over the years and releases, but look at hic‌'s response here:
