Package does not work when categorical variable has 2 levels. Of course you want to use the package when there are more than two levels. But I have many categorical variables and thus wrote a function to apply encoding on all the categorical variables. Since some of my categorical variables only have two levels, I get errors. See code below

set.seed(12345)
n <- 100
p <- 3

X <- matrix(rnorm(n * p), n, p)
G <- as.factor(sample(2, size = n, replace = TRUE))

One-hot encoding

onehot_encoder <- make_encoder(X = X, G = G, method = "one_hot")

train.df <- onehot_encoder(X = X, G = G)
print(head(train.df))
