Interations with binary variables #14

Closed victorn1 closed 6 years ago

victorn1 commented 6 years ago

I'd suggest that, for a binary variable, interactions be calculated for the both values of the variable, not just for 1 (for 0-1 variables). Let, say, we have a continuous variable a and a binary variable b. Now only the distribution of ab is assessed. It would be more correct to assess the both distributions: of ab and a(1-b).

Another great suggestion, and one that will be easy to implement.

Done!

Thank you very much for your help! Waiting for CRAN package update.
