Formula Issues

Riot

I have time variable. It goes from 0-23. I want to parse it into categories. If 22,23, 0, 1,2 ,3 than 1, If 4,5,6,7,8,9 than 2, if 10,11,12,13,14,15 than 3 if 16,17,18,19,20,21 than 4. 

I have trouble writing forumlas with multiple posible outputs. Any advice would be great.

Hi,

The formula should look something like this:

 

IF [variable] IN (22,23,0,1,2,3) THEN 1
ELSEIF [variable] IN (4,5,6,7,8,9) THEN 2
ELSEIF [variable] IN (10,11,12,13,14,15) THEN 3
ELSEIF [variable] IN (16,17,18,19,20,21) THEN 3
ELSE 0
ENDIF

 

I have also attached a example workflow.

 

Have a nice weekend,

Daniel

Can easily be done using the MOD and Floor function:

Floor(Mod([Hour]+2,24) / 6) + 1

Attached as a workflow as well
