Soma data types

When you import a dataset into Soma, it attempts to infer the source data types and aligns them with corresponding Soma data types. These Soma data types are internal and are primarily based on Java data types. The interpreted data types are showcased at the top of each column on the Data page.

If you make a change from a String to a Boolean data type, all the values in the respective column will be set to FALSE.

Similarly, if you convert an Integer to a Boolean, the number 1 will be interpreted as TRUE, while 0 and all other values will be interpreted as FALSE.
