UpCase and DownCase String Function : DataStage Transformation

Downcase(column):
                  This function converts all the input character to LOWER case where input can be in any case.

input = 'This is me'
input1 = 'this is me'
input2 = 'THIS IS ME'

DownCase(input)    =  'this is me'
DownCase(input1)   =  'this is me'
DownCase(input2)   =  'this is me'

Upcase(column): 
                  This function converts all the input character to UPPER case where input can be in any case.

input = 'This is upper case function'
input1 = 'this is me'
input2 = 'THIS IS ME'

UpCase(input)    =  'THIS IS UPPER CASE FUNCTION'
UpCase(input1)   =  'THIS IS ME'
UpCase(input2)   =  'THIS IS ME'

Left and Right String Function - DataStage Transformation

Today, we will discuss two more datastage transformer functions - Left & Right.  These two functions use to get or cut the string from the input data, Let's have a look -


Left(input, number)  
input : - input column
number :- the no of characters you want to fetch from Left most of string

input = 'This is a test of fuctions."

Left(input,9)  =    'This is a'
Left(input, 3) =    'Thi'

Right(input, number)
input : - input column
number :- the no of characters you want to fetch from Right most of string

input = 'This is a test of fuctions."

Right(input,9)  =    'fuctions.'
Right(input, 14) =    't of fuctions.'

Use of Left/Right function to get SubString -

These functions used to get substring from an input if the start and end character location known or can be derived. Let's see an example -

we need to cut input from 2nd to 6th character

input = 'This is a test of fuctions."

left(input, 6) = 'This i'           #left function cut the left 6 character

Right(left(input,5),5) = 'his i'    #Use right func, to cut right 6-2+1 = 5 char
