All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, ColumnOp, Transform

public class ConcatenateStringColumns
extends BaseTransform
implements ColumnOp

Concatenate values of one or more String columns into a new String column. Retains the constituent String columns so user must remove those manually, if desired. TODO: use new String Reduce functionality in DataVec?
