Label Encoding

• What It Does: Label Encoding assigns a unique integer to each unique category.
• Best For: Ordinal data (categories with a natural order, e.g., low, medium, high).
• Suitable for ordinal data (where categories have an inherent order, like "low," "medium," "high").
• Example:"low" → 0, "medium" → 1, "high" → 2.
• Caution: Can mislead models for nominal data since it imposes ordinal relationships
