Hi everyone,
If I want to change a numeric value of an attribute, I tend to use the ExpressionEvaluator. I kind of see it as the 'transformer equivalent' of the Arithmetic Editor.
Is there a 'transformer equivalent' of the Text Editor as well? I guess there is the StringReplacer, StringConcatenator, AttributeManager, etc., but which one would be the best/most efficient to use?
And speaking of efficiency, I have another question regarding transformers.
A colleague of mine told me a while ago that, for debugging's sake, it is wiser to use e.g. an AttributeCreator, AttributeRenamer and AttributeKeeper in series instead of using a single AttributeManager to perform all those tasks in one go. I tend to agree with them on that, but does this also have any consequences for performance? I can imagine the difference being minimal, but best practices and all that.
Thanks in advance!
