Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.simulate_data function accepts number of output classes and this number can be configured via n_categories. But XGBoost's objective is hardcoded to 'binary:logistic' which causes exception when n_categories > 2.
Describe the solution you'd like
Remove k=2 from simulate_data API to not confuse users and put it inside the function.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Check if n_categories > 2 and change objective to multi:softmax.
