Rapidminer split a column without split pattern?

I have a table, which includes in one column the values ANNI and in other lines ANNI 2343355.

I want to split the cells which includes ANNI 2343355.

That's what I have:

And this is what I want:

Actually the answers helped me a lot, but now I have another Problem. that's my process now

But the result looks like that: result

I don't know where I messed up your code, but I would be very thankful if u could help me another time.

Solution

  • you can use the Split operator to separate a string value based on a regex pattern. In your example, a simple \s for a whitespace character is sufficient. Afterwards you need to do some post-processing do get everything in the desired format. See the example below. You can just copy&paste the XML snippet in your RapidMiner process window.
