Pandas #45

Closed andrewheusser closed 7 years ago

andrewheusser commented 7 years ago

takes pandas dataframes as input. categorical variables are turned into 'dummy' variables by default (i.e. binary vectors for each text label in a column). The 'text_vars' flag (which is documented in the readme for more info) can also be set to 'numerical', which just maps each column from text labels to numerical labels.

How are multilevel indices handled?

andrewheusser commented 7 years ago

hmmmm, they aren't currently, just single level indexes. would be nice to have, but not sure what it would take

jeremymanning commented 7 years ago

OK-- let's merge without supporting multilevel indices. We can add multilevel index support as a "far future" feature. Ready for you to merge the pull request when you are. (@andrewheusser)
