Can someone please explain this a little further? Is there a greater than symbol in a?
Which of the following does not have proper syntax for specifying a range in the VALUE statement?
a. 500>-700 |
b. 500-<700 |
c. 'A'-'C' |
d. 'Horse'-'Mouse' |
Your answer: b
Correct answer: a
The greater than symbol is not valid for a range. The less than symbol can be used after the starting value or before the ending value.
Hi @mintbit
By default, a simple hyphen (-) means that boundaries are included.
To exclude them, you can use the inferior sign: <
Best,
Thank you for the reply. It is much clearer now. My question seems so stupid now that I understand the answer 😅
