Function Reference
1010data Insights Platform offers a rich set of functions that may be used in value expressions when creating computed columns and in selection expressions when performing row selections.
- All 1010data Functions
  1010data provides a whole range of functions that can provide information and act on your data.
- Time/Date functions
  The time/date functions are vector functions that operate on columns containing time-related data and return specific information about the date/time for each row.
- Group functions (g_functions)
  Group functions, or g_functions, are used to perform operations, such as summarizations, on rows that have the same values in a set of given columns.
- Math functions
  Math functions are vector functions that perform mathematical operations on one or more columns and return a column of results based on the operation.
- Matrix functions
- Categorization functions
  Categorization functions are vector functions that organize data and determine logical groupings. These functions can be used for conditionalizing results and/or bucketing value ranges.
- String functions
  String functions are vector functions that manipulate vectors of strings to provide information about a string or substring, concatenate and split strings, or transform strings based on specified criteria.
- List functions
  List functions are scalar functions that return lists, subsets of lists, and combinations of lists, among other functionality. Lists, along with packages, are compound scalar data types that facilitate programmatic interaction with scalar data values and variables.

      Find the index positions of values in list-value L for values that appear in list-value P.
    - lst_remove(L;R)
      Remove elements from list-value L that are found in list-value R. This function does not remove duplicates that appear multiple times in list-value L from the returned list-value.
    - lst_reverse(L)
      Invert the order of the elements of a list-value.
    - lst_take(L;N)
      Returns a list-value containing a given number of elements.
    - lst_to_pkg(K;V)
      Returns a new package value by accepting a list of keys and a list of values of equal lengths.

`jnlst(L1 L2...LN)`

Returns a single list-value made up of the elements of multiple lists.

Syntax

jnlst(L1 L2...LN)

Input

Argument	Type	Description
`L`	any	A space- or comma-separated list of scalar values

Return Value

Returns a single list-value that contains all the elements of L1 L2...LN.

Example

The following example demonstrates how jnlst(L1 L2...LN) is used to create a list-value named heroes that consists of all the elements in the list-values group1, group2, and group3. The column all_heroes shows the value of heroes. The column fifth_hero shows the value of the fifth element in the heroes list-value. The <foreach> loop creates a computed column for each of the elements in heroes.

<letseq group1="{lst('Malfurion' 'Uther' 'Rexxar')}" 
 group2="{lst('Jaina' 'Thrall' 'Anduin')}" 
 group3="{lst('Valeera' 'Guldan' 'Garrosh')}" 
 heroes="{jnlst(@group1 @group2 @group3)}">
    <willbe name="all_heroes" value="{@heroes}"/>
    <willbe name="fifth_hero" value="'{@heroes.5}'"/>
    <foreach hero="{@heroes}" tally_="@i">
        <willbe name="hero_{@i}" value="'{@hero}'"/>
    </foreach>
</letseq>
