The Rename step changes the name of an existing variable.
Rename score to final_score
There will be at least one rename block where you will define a variable and a new name.
We can change the name of a variable to give more meaning to the data.
Source variable: The variable we want to rename is date so we select that here.
New name: date_taken would be a better name for this variable, so we enter it here.
