Complex Workflow with Conditional Logic
---------------------------------------

.. code-block:: python

   from kailash.workflow import Workflow
   from kailash.nodes.logic import SwitchNode, MergeNode
   from kailash.nodes.transform import DataTransformer
   from kailash.runtime.local import LocalRuntime

   # Create workflow with branching
   workflow = Workflow("advanced_flow", name="Advanced Flow")

   # Add switch for conditional routing
   switch = SwitchNode()
   workflow.add_node("router", switch)

   # Add processing branches
   high_value = DataTransformer(transformations=["lambda x: x"])
   low_value = DataTransformer(transformations=["lambda x: x"])

   workflow.add_node("process_high", high_value)
   workflow.add_node("process_low", low_value)

   # Add merge to combine results
   merge = MergeNode()
   workflow.add_node("combine", merge)

   # Connect with conditional routing
   workflow.connect("router", "process_high")
   workflow.connect("router", "process_low")
   workflow.connect("process_high", "combine")
   workflow.connect("process_low", "combine")
