The OneHotEncoder() performs one hot encoding. One hot encoding consists in replacing the categorical variable by a group of binary variables which take value 0 or 1, to indicate if a certain category is present in the observation. The binary variables are also known as dummy variables.

Machine learning methods such as logistic regression, SVM with a linear kernel, and so on, will often require that categorical variables be converted into dummy variables. For example, a single feature Vehicle would be converted into three features, Cars, Trucks, and Pickups, one for each category in the categorical feature. The common ways to preprocess categorical features are:
        i) pandas,
        ii) scikit-learn.
