Multiply Operation

Description

This operation allows you to multiply the numbers in a list separated by a specified delimiter. This is useful for scaling data, performing simple arithmetic, or manipulating numerical datasets.

Data types

These are the input/output expected data types for this operation:

Input data

- Input string containing numbers to multiply, separated by a specified delimiter.

Output data

- The result of the multiplication.

Parameters

These are the parameters you need to configure to use this operation (mandatory parameters are marked with a *):

Delimiter*

Choose the delimiter that separates the numbers in your input data:

• Line feed - Select this to have each line of text as a separate value.

• Space - Your numbers are separated by spaces.

• Comma - Your numbers are separated by commas (,)

• Semi-colon - Your numbers are separated by semi-colons (;)

• Colon - Your numbers are separated by colons (:)

• CRLF - Carriage return line feed (CRLF) is a control character that originally referred to moving the carriage on typewriters back to the starting position. In computing, it’s used in classic Mac OS and some Windows-based systems to mark the end of a line. If your input uses \r as the line-ending character, you can set the delimiter to \r to correctly separate values. For example: 100\r200\r300

Example

Suppose you want to multiply a series of numbers in your input strings. They are separated by commas (,). To do it:

1. In your Pipeline, open the required Action configuration and select the input Field.

2. In the Operation field, choose Multiply Operation.

3. Set Delimiter to Comma.

4. Give your Output field a name and click Save. You'll get the multiplication of the numbers in your input data. For example:

2, 3, 5 -> 30

You can try out operations with specific values using the Input field above the operation. You can enter the value in the example above and check the result in the Output field.
