Change data structure

beatrizmguerreiro

Hello, 

 

I have a set of data that represent the same information, but have different data structures. 

Rate
16,00', '%'
'16.00', '%'
0.00'
 
16.00%
'16.000', '%'

 

How can I convert this column into the following structure?

0,16
0,16
0
null
0,16
0,16

 

 

Thank you very much, in advance

Hi @beatrizmguerreiro,

 

In order to achieve this you need to use regex. As I am not a master of it I am using a specific tool called regex and I am using below expresion:

 

\d+.\d+

 

I am searching for a string that contains one or more digits dot represent any character and once more I am looking for one or more digits.

 

This is my workflow:

This is the final output:

Please mark my post as a solution if this was helpful!

@Emil_Kos gives excellent idea for this one.

Just  I noticed that you are using comma rather than period for numbers. so made a bit modificaiton.
