Say suppose we have dataset having attribute procesing_month and month1.   I want to generate new attribute if value of processing_month is "1" then dont create any attribute. If the value is "2" then create new attribute "month2", if value is "3" then create 2 attribute "Month2" and "month3" if value is 4 then create 3 attribute "month2" , "Month3" and "month4".
