Multiply

Synopsis

This Operator creates copies of a Rapidminer® software Object.

Description

The Operator takes the Rapidminer Object from the input port and delivers copies of it to the output ports. Each connected port creates an independent copy. So changing one copy has no effect on other copies.

Differentiation

Many Operators have an output port named original or throughput, which does not change the input. By chaining Operators to one or more original ports also copies of an object can be created. But such a layout can get complicated very fast. The Multiply Operator helps to better structure a process.

Input

input

The input that should be copied. It can be any Rapidminer Object.

Output

output

The copy of the input object. As one output port is connected, another output port is created for more copies. All ports deliver unchanged copies of the input object.
