How decode numeric values

[#1]

Hi ,

Is there any way to decode numeric values .

for example Article with "ABC" format.

ABC Coding :

A :

0=Men's Casual Shoes ,

1=Men's Sports Shoes ,

2=Boy's casual Shoes ,

3=Girl's casual shoes ,

4=women's Canvas Shoes ,

5=Men's Sandals ,

6= Women's Sandals ,

7= Girl's Sandals ,

8=Men's Formal Shoes ,

9= Women's Formal Shoes

=========================

B:

0=black Color ,

1= White Color ,

2=Tan ,

3=Grey ,

4=Beige ,

5=Brown ,

6=Blue ,

7=Maroon ,

8=pink,

9=Multi Color

=========================

C:

0=Size 6 ,

1=Size 6.5 ,

2=Size 7 ,

3=Size 7.5 ,

4=Size 8 ,

5=Size 8.5 ,

6=Size 9 ,

7=Size 9.5 ,

8=Size 10 ,

9=Size 10.5

========================

For example  Article "183" means "Men's Sports Shoes , Pink Color , Size 7.5 "

You can use mapping tables and applymap:

MapA:
mapping load * inline [
0,Men's Casual Shoes
1,Men's Sports Shoes
2,Boy's casual Shoes
3,Girl's casual shoes
4,women's Canvas Shoes
5,Men's Sandals
6, Women's Sandals
7, Girl's Sandals
8,Men's Formal Shoes
9, Women's Formal Shoes
];

// imagine MapB and MapC here

Result:
Load
ABC,
applymap('MapA', left(ABC,1)) as Product,
applymap('MapB', mid(ABC,2,1)) as Color,
applymap('MapC', right(ABC,1)) as Size
from ...sourcetable;

Can you share the App?

Your example is a bit confusing

Hi.

Try text() function:

text(expression ) = text(123)

The text function forces the expression to be treated as text, even if a numeric interpretation is possible.

From there you can use string functions like

left( ), right(), mid() etc.

There are a number of functions available, choose one you like.

As an example:  =left(text(456), 1) returns 4
