Statements

Overview

Statements are operations which are applied to one dataset at a time. Each statement produces a new dataset from the current dataset. Statements may change the shape of the dataset. Statements can be composed of expressions, which operate on attributes of the dataset.

A Transformation Script is composed of a series of statements. Each statement in the series operates on the output dataset of the previous statement.
