Rename duplicated Values

[micheledenardi]

Dear all,

 i have a table like this:

Name

Mark

Julia

Mike

John

John

John

i want to rename all duplicated in order to have only distinct values to obtain

Name

Mark

Julia

Mike

John

John 2

John 3

How to do this?

thanks

Hi @micheledenardi 

One solution:

Data:

LOAD * INLINE [
    Name
    Mark
    Julia
    Mike
    John
    John
    John
];

Tmp:
noconcatenate

load *,if(rowno()=1,1,if(peek(Name)=Name,peek(n)+1,1)) as n resident Data order by Name;

drop table Data;


Final:
noconcatenate

load if(n=1,Name,Name&n) as Name resident Tmp;

drop table Tmp;

output :

Try like:

Load *,
                Name& If(AutoNumber(RowNo(),Name)>1,AutoNumber(RowNo(), Name)) as NewName

Inline [
Name
Mark
Julia
Mike
John
John
John]

Why can'y you append rowNo() with Name column:

Name&' '&RowNo() as distinctName
