Special loop example involving data bases
https://forum.knime.com/t/joiner-node-in-loop/11343/5?u=mlauber71
[loop] Recursive Loop (use a very simple loop to make a forecast prediction. Also use temporary table to store information in a loop an read it back)

[switch] Check if column is present and use if-switch accordingly
https://hub.knime.com/mlauber71/spaces/Public/latest/kn_example_if_switch?u=mlauber71
[switch] Use Java Snippet to check if Column is there, fill a FlowVariable and then activate if switch
