Take value from specific cell to create a column

ileshem

Hello, 

In JSL, I want to use a specific cell value to create a column. how can I do it?

From this:

ID
1122
Name	Age
Johan	23
David	34
Jack	27

to This: 

ID	Name	Age
1122	Johan	23
1122	David	34
1122	Jack	27

For this specific case this should work:

 

Names Default To Here(1);

dt = New Table("Untitled 5",
	Add Rows(6),
	Compress File When Saved(1),
	New Column("Column 1",
		Character,
		"Nominal",
		Set Values({"ID", "1122", "Name", "Johan", "David", "Jack"})
	),
	New Column("Column 2",
		Character(16),
		"Nominal",
		Set Values({"", "", "Age", "23", "34", "27"})
	)
);
wait(1);
//get column name
columnNameCell = dt[1,1];
//get cell value
valueCell = dt[2,1];
//Rename columns
Column(dt,1) << Set Name(dt[3,1]);
Column(dt,2) << Set Name(dt[3,2]);
//Remove extra rows
dt << Delete Rows([1,2,3]);
//create new column
dt << New Column(columnNameCell, Character, Nominal, << Set Each Value(valueCell));
//Move ID column
dt << Move Selected Columns(:ID, To First);

For modifications like this I think Data Table Subscripting is very helpful
