Creating a Variable 1+1

[HigorFreitas]

Hello There!

I'm a newbie in Qlik Sense, and I need help to create a variable that's the result of an expression (1+1) in my app.

How can I create this?

Thanks!

Hi!

I posted a similar solution yesterday https://community.qlik.com/t5/New-to-Qlik-Sense/Assigning-a-list-to-a-variable/m-p/2016082#M220092

You'd need to create sum(1+1) as the variale and then use $() around the variable name to execute it

Hello Higor!

You have 2 ways to do this:

• In script you can use LET to create a variable that  results in a expression result
• In variable manager (in botton left corner) you can create a variable using equal simbol (=) in the beggining of your expression

Hope it helps! 😁

Data Load Editor:
Let vSum = 1 + 1; (in the data load editor)
Now we can use $(vSum) expansion to pass the value of variable.

Front end:

On left - bottom corner, you can create variables. For reference

Once you create them, they appear like below.

vSum is created in Data load editor and cannot be edited/deleted from Front-end.
vSumm is created in Front-end. Can be edited or deleted.

One more way to create a variable which stores as string.

Set vString = 1+1;
It doesn't give result as 2. It gives result as '1+1'.
