Challenge #224: Mushroom for Improvement

This is a great example of one of those problems that conceptually is easy to pick up and a little trickier (for me at least) to solve!

I feel like I could have done this with less tools. I did add a bit to make sure the column names matched the original format rather than forced to underlines.

A similar approach to most of the others.

I always think I will use find and replace, but often use join for these kinds of exercises....The 'missing' threw me for a minute!!!

This was a great exercise in foraging for parsing tools, configurations, and formulas. 

 

***UPDATE*** After posting my solution and browsing through others I came across one with a tool I have not used before - so decided to dig in, looked at the Alteryx embedded examples, and !POOF! a new solution. Tool reveal and updated (slightly more elegant) visual in spoiler, along with new .yxzp.

Discovering the Dynamic Replace tool... so cool! Mushroom data set needs no transformation, only need to create a boolean field for the replace ([_CurrentField_]='[code field]'. Field Name Field uses the parsed field names from second input as the index, with boolean logic, to replace with description.
