For Numeric attributes, user can set ranges using the following methods:
- Equal intervals is a method that will divide the range of values into equal-size classes. For example, three classes for the range of values from 0 to 300 will be created with the following ranges: 0 — 100, 101 — 200, 201 — 300.
- Equal number (quantile) is a method that will split the range of values into classes equal to the number of objects within each class.
- Natural Breaks (Jenks optimization) is a method that will split the range of values into classes, the differences between values within which will be maximal.
