Hi, I have a dataset containing numerical and categorical data. I like to use Naive Bayes Classifier in the following link but it only confers with numerical values.

Does anyone have an idea about how to extend that code to categorical data as well?

Convert the categoricals to doubles.
c = categorical({'red';'blue';'red'})
double(c)

The table is nice for storing but not for these computations. Reconvert to a table after with the same names from the original table (T.properties.variableNames).

Hi i just realized that converting categorical to double makes things complicated. For example it gives different values to the ones that are actually same. I see values 127 ,96 all sort of different ones in a column where all of them were actually 'yes'. So what should I do about it?
