What it does
Which of some words appear in a text as whole words, so ban never matches banana. It's a value node: no white pins, it works out its answer when a step wired to it needs it. It gives 3 values later steps can use. Find it under Values in the palette.
When to use it
Use it when a step needs a value worked out first: which of some words appear in a text as whole words, so ban never matches banana.
When not to
For a value that never changes, type it into the setting instead of wiring a node.
