TD_BinCodeTransform is a data transformation technique used to convert continuous numerical data into categorical data. The process involves dividing the numerical data into multiple intervals or bins and assigning categorical labels to each bin. You can use the resulting categorical data for further analysis or modeling, and can help you to simplify and reduce the complexity of the data.

TD_BinCodeTransform follows this process:
  1. Determines the number and size of the bins.
  2. Assigns the data to the bin based on its value. This process of assigning data values to bins is known as binning.
  3. Assigns a categorical label to each bin, which the function can auto-generate based on the bin boundaries or your inputs.

    See TD_BinCodeTransform Usage Notes.

TD_BinCodeTransform bin-codes input table columns, using TD_BinCodeFit output.
