You could watch this video that does an in depth explanation of the rule engine node.

Knime: the Excel equivalent of the IF function / statements using the Rule Engine Node

Also what I find very helpful is exploring the knime hub and downloading examples that would show the use of certain nodes.

Thank you. I used different route. I used Table Reader Node → Entered the needed categories in table form → Cell Replace Node. This is easy.

Actually I tried using this but did not work the way I wanted. Thanks anyways.
