Spyder(python 3.7)
I am facing following errors here. I have already update all library from anaconda prompt. But can't findout the solution of the problem.
from sklearn.preprocessing import LabelEncoder, OneHotEncoder
labelencoder_X_1 = LabelEncoder()
X[:, 1] = labelencoder_X_1.fit_transform(X[:, 1])
labelencoder_X_2 = LabelEncoder()
X[:, 2] = labelencoder_X_2.fit_transform(X[:, 2])
onehotencoder = OneHotEncoder(categorical_features = [1])
X = onehotencoder.fit_transform(X).toarray()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<ipython-input-4-05deb1f02719>", line 2, in <module>
onehotencoder = OneHotEncoder(categorical_features = [1])
TypeError: __init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'categorical_features'
Best Answer
So based on your code, you'd have to:
Noticed how the first LabelEncoder was removed, you do not need to apply both the label encoded and the one hot encoder on the column anymore.
(I've kinda assumed your example came from the ML Udemy course, and the first column was a list of countries, while the second one a male/female binary choice)
