Not sure about this, can we really just ignore field A?

Wait, why would you delete field A? That seems risky.

Hiding field A is a solid choice too.

I agree, that makes the most sense!

Field A should definitely be marked as intermediate.

Hiding field B seems odd since it's the final output. I think we should focus on field A, but I can't remember the exact steps from my notes.

I feel like deleting field A could simplify things, but then I worry if that would mess up the calculation for field B.

I remember a practice question where we had to manage fields in a similar way. Adding a Manage Fields stage sounds familiar, but I can't recall if we should hide field A or B.

I think marking field A as an intermediate calculation might be the right choice, but I'm not entirely sure how that affects the final output.

I think option A is the way to go here. Marking field A as an intermediate calculation is the cleanest solution and ensures that only the final field B gets published out, which is what we need. Seems like the most efficient way to handle this.

Option D seems like the easiest solution - just delete field A and only publish out field B. That way, I don't have to worry about any intermediate calculations or hiding fields. Might be the most straightforward approach.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I was thinking option B might work, but I'm not 100% sure if that's the best approach. I'll have to double-check the details on hiding fields in the Manage Fields stage.

This seems straightforward - I'd go with option A and mark field A as an intermediate calculation. That way, it won't get published out, but I can still use it to calculate field B.

You know, I'm feeling a bit mischievous today. I think I'd choose C, just to see the look on the examiner's face. 'Wait, you want me to hide the output field? Brilliant!'

User 1: I think I'll go with option A, marking field A as intermediate calculation.

Hmm, I'd say D is the way to go. Why bother with an intermediary field if you don't need it? Just delete A and let B shine on its own. Efficiency is key, my friend.

Agreed, deleting field A and focusing on field B is definitely the most efficient choice.

I think D is the best option too. No need for extra steps if you don't need field A.

Ah, the age-old dilemma of intermediary fields. I'd go with option B - hide that pesky field A and just publish field B. Keep it simple, you know?

Definitely, no need to clutter things up with unnecessary intermediary fields.

Yeah, that's what I would do too. Keeping it simple is key in data transformation.

Option B sounds like the best choice. Just hide field A and focus on publishing field B.
EV

But wouldn't it be better to just delete field A and leave field B?

I agree with Stephanie, marking field A as intermediate calculation makes sense.

I think they should mark field A as intermediate calculation.
