Notes
•Input row values are unchanged.
•You can add leading zeros to integers values created using the Pad transform.
•You can change the format of dates created using the DateTime format transform.
•If you only want to add some values from a sequence (e.g. odd numbers or weekdays) then you can do this by using Sequence followed by Filter to remove the unwanted values. You might need to use Calculate with the Modulus and/or Day of week operation to create a column to filter on.
