Synopsis
This operator renames the attributes of an ExampleSet by assigning the values of a specified example as attribute names and deleting that example from the ExampleSet. This operator is deprecated. Please use the Rename by Example Values from the blending extension instead.
Description
The Rename by Example Values operator uses the values of the specified example of the ExampleSet as new attribute names. Therow numberparameter specifies which row should be used as attribute names. Please note that all regular and special attributes are renamed. Moreover, the example is deleted from the ExampleSet. This operator can be useful in cases when an example holds the names of the attributes.

For example if you have an attribute named 'alpha' ofintegertype andregularrole. Renaming the attribute to 'beta' will just change its name. It will retain its typeintegerand roleregular. To change the role of an operator, use the
Input
example set input
This input port expects an ExampleSet. It is the output of the Subprocess operator in the attached Example Process. The output of other operators can also be used as input. It is essential that meta data should be attached with the data for the input because attributes are specified in their meta data.
Output
example set output
The ExampleSet with renamed attributes is output of this port.
original
The ExampleSet that was given as input is passed without changing to the output through this port. This is usually used to reuse the same ExampleSet in further operators or to view the ExampleSet in the Results Workspace.
Parameters
Row number
This parameter specifies which row values should be used as attribute names. Please note that counting starts with 1.
