Examples​

Example #1​

Determine if the table <code>({[a = 1, b = 2], [a = 3, b = 4]})</code> contains the rows <code>[a = 1, b = 2]</code> or <code>[a = 3, b = 5]</code>.

Table.ContainsAny(
    Table.FromRecords({
        [a = 1, b = 2],
        [a = 3, b = 4]
    }),
    {
        [a = 1, b = 2],
        [a = 3, b = 5]
    }
)

Result:

true

Example #2​

    }
)

Result:

false

Example #3​

Table.ContainsAny(
    Table.FromRecords({
        [a = 1, b = 2],
        [a = 3, b = 4]
    }),
    {
        [a = 1, b = 3],
