Change the word "enum" to "categorical" in Flow #9836

Open exalate-issue-sync[bot] opened 1 year ago

exalate-issue-sync[bot] commented 1 year ago

One of the first things I have to do when teaching people how to use Flow is to teach them what the word "enum" means. It would be great to clear up this confusion.

Hopefully changing the word "enum" to "categorical" is only an HTML change, so I think this will be easy. If not, let's discuss a solution in the comments below.

Arno Candel commented: "enum" is used in the REST API during Parsing for the column types...

Erin LeDell commented: After a discussion about this yesterday, we thought that changing just the "Convert to enum" button text would improve clarity. We don't need to change the API though... Alternatively, we could just make a note somewhere on Flow that describes what an "enum" is.
