Hello,
I was hoping someone can help me with the segments in CI - I see no way of adding parentheses in a segment to make sure the intersect or union functions work properly.
For example, I want to create a segment called "1" that would be comprised of segment a - intersect - { segment b + union + segment c + union + segment d}.
Trying to put that in a formula for a more visual clarification:
segment 1 = segment a (intersect) {segment b (union) segment c (union) segment d}
I am worried that without parentheses, segment a will only intersect segment b, and the rest will be a union with the result of segment a and b intersection.
Any help appreciated!
Thanks
Adele
Hi Adele,
The best way to do this is to create a separate segment x = segment b (union) segment c (union) segment d, and then segment 1 = segment a (intersect) segment x.
CI does not support parentheses at the moment and will treat the conditions like sequential set operations. Hence that intermediate segment is the best way to achieve what you are after.
Hope that helps.
