Yes, no, no, because for update a global variable you use set instead of update

agree, it's a table and Update function cannot update a table

Update can modify tables -- in fact, it can only modify individual records (rows) on a table. See here: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/powerapps/maker/canvas-apps/functions/function-update-updateif

You create GLOBAL variables using Set function, you create CONTEXT variables using UpdateContext function or with Navigate, depending on the situation. The created structure is a Table, which you could also create using the Table function. In order to create a collection, you must call Collect or ClearCollect. I didn't believe this either, so I copied the provided code and used the variable in a DropDown on the screen 2. The editor properly recognizes the variable as a Table.

You can create a collection by using '['. For Ex: [1,2,3] is a collection.

@BondBala3 What you have defined here is not a collection, it's a Table. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-platform/power-fx/tables#table You can Collect a table into a Collection but that doesn't make [1,2,3] a collection.

Yes, No, No: 1) Set creates a global variable (so accesible everywhere in the App) 2) Set can't create a collection 3) Update works only with collection (so No due to point 2)

This is correct. Tested this myself. Update only works with a collection. A global variable can be accessed from multiple screens.

first one is yes ASSUMING the first screen you load in isn't screen2, as if it is the global variable won't have been set yet, so its 50/50 that the screens are laid out as we'd expect from the question, but there is a chance one could actually be no

Set creates a global variable not a collection. Global variables are accesible from everywhere. Update works with collections, not with variables

Yes - it's a global variable can be access from any screen in app, No - it's not a collection, since set is used only with global variable, No - No with global variable only Set function is used. Ref: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/power-apps/maker/canvas-apps/working-with-variables

Yes, No, No. Yes => Set defines global variables. No => It's a table not a collection No => I tried myself in PowerApps, Update does not work on tables, only in datasources or collections.

Yes, no, no A Set can be defined in a screen 1, and updated via set() in screen 2. It is a not collection, that's why update can't work on global variables

Yes, No , No. Yes - Set is a global variable expression. AgeGroups is not a collection, it just maintains the value against the variable, collections should have reference data. Finally Update context updates the variable. there is no expression with only Update.
