Usage

Table.PositionOfAny(
    Table.FromRecords({
        [a = 2, b = 4],
        [a = 1, b = 4],
        [a = 2, b = 4],
        [a = 1, b = 4]
    }),
    {
        [a = 2, b = 4],
        [a = 6, b = 8]
    }
)

Output

Find the position of all the occurrences of [a = 2, b = 4] or [a = 6, b = 8] in the table ({[a = 2, b = 4], [a = 6, b = 8], [a = 2, b = 4], [a = 1, b = 4]}.

Usage

Table.PositionOfAny(
    Table.FromRecords({
        [a = 2, b = 4],
        [a = 6, b = 8],
        [a = 2, b = 4],
        [a = 1, b = 4]
    }),
    {
        [a = 2, b = 4],
        [a = 6, b = 8]
    },
