- OutputTable
- [MethodType ('equal-width') only.] [Optional] Specify a name for the secondary output table which contains the actual bins used by the BincodeTransform function.
- TargetColumns
- Specify the names of the InputTable columns to bin-code.
- MethodType
- Specify the bin-coding method:
Method Type Description equal-width Bins have fixed width with auto-generated labels. Function finds minimum and maximum values of target columns (min and max) and computes bin width, w, with this formula:
w = (max - min)/k
k, the number of bins, is determined by NBins.
For bin boundaries and names of generated labels, see LabelPrefix.
variable-width Bins have specified variable widths and specified labels, provided by FitInput table. Maximum number of bins is 3000.
- NBins
- [MethodType ('equal-width') only.] Specify either a single bin value for all the target columns or separate bin values for each of the target columns.
- LabelPrefix
- [MethodType ('equal-width') only.][Optional] Specify either a prefix for all the target columns or a separate prefix for each of the target columns.

- [MethodType ('variable-width') only.][Optional] Specify the name of the FitInput column that has the minimum value of the bin (lower bin boundaries).

- [MethodType ('variable-width') only.][Optional] Specify the name of the FitInput column that has the maximum value of the bin (upper bin boundaries).

- [MethodType ('variable-width') only.][Optional] Specify the name of the FitInput column that has the bin labels.
- TargetColNames
- [MethodType ('variable-width') only.][Optional] Specify the name of the FitInput column that has the target column names.
