In our last tutorial, we discussed\u00a0QlikView Backus Naur Form<\/strong><\/a>. Today, we will learn what are QlikView Operators. Moreover, we will learn types of operators in QlikView:\u00a0QlikView String Operators, Relational Operators, Numeric Operators, Logical Operators, Bit Operators, Binary Operators, and Unary Operators in QlikView with syntax and examples.<\/p>\n

So, let’s start QlikView Operators Tutorial.<\/p>\n

QlikView Operators – 5 Major Types of Operators in QlikView<\/p><\/div>\n

QlikView Operators<\/h3>\n

The word Operator<\/strong> must be a familiar one to you if you are well acquainted with the terms used in the word of computer science. While learning the basics of any computer language, you learn terms like data types, variables, operators etc.<\/p>\n

So, it is evident that understanding the operators is as important as learning anything else in a language like C, SQL, C++ etc. QlikView Operators are symbols or keywords which are used to apply mathematical operations on data values.<\/p>\n

QlikView Operator<\/strong> is a symbol or a keyword which is used to perform an action on the data values it is used on. It is through reading the operators that the compiler of a computer understands what mathematical or logical function is to be applied to the values given during code execution. The data values on which the operator works and gives results are known as Operands or Arguments in QlikView.<\/p>\n

Do you know What is\u00a0QMC and QMS API?<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

For instance, if in a computer language we wish to multiply two digits (data items or data values), then the operator with the symbol, * (asterisk) will be used. In the expression 2*4, the Operator is \u2018*\u2019 and the Operands are the values 2 and 4. Depending on the number of Operands there are two types of QlikView Operators (also applicable in QlikView),<\/p>\n

i. Unary Operators in QlikView<\/h4>\n

The Unary Operators works only on one Operand. The format in which a unary operator typically appears is operator operand. Like -1, where – is the unary minus operator and 1 is the operand.<\/p>\n

There are several unary operators like,<\/p>\n
