.. _auto_binning_number:

*CREATE BINS BASED ON MIN,MAX AND INC AND IDENTIFY THE BIN IN WHICH THE RESPONSE VALUE FALLS INTO*
==================================================================================================

Creates a set of equal-width bins defined by a minimum value, maximum value, and increment, then identifies which bin a given scalar response value falls into. Use this worker to discretize continuous KPI outputs into labeled ranges for classification, reporting, or downstream branching logic.

Inputs
------

.. list-table::
   :header-rows: 1
   :widths: 20 20 20 20 20 20

   * - Label
     - ID
     - Type
     - Default
     - Required
     - Description
   * - Response to classify
     - responsetoclassify
     - scalar
     - —
     - 
     - The scalar response value (e.g., a simulation KPI or measured quantity) to be classified into one of the defined bins; leave unconnected if only bin edges are needed.
   * - Min
     - min
     - number
     - 0
     - 
     - Lower bound of the binning range (same units as the response value); defaults to 0 — set this to the smallest expected response value.
   * - Max
     - max
     - number
     - 0
     - 
     - Upper bound of the binning range (same units as the response value); defaults to 0 — must be greater than Min for valid bin generation.
   * - Increment
     - increment
     - number
     - 0
     - 
     - Width of each bin (same units as the response value); defaults to 0 — set to a positive value that evenly divides the [Min, Max] interval.

Outputs
-------

.. list-table::
   :header-rows: 1
   :widths: 20 20 20 20

   * - Label
     - ID
     - Type
     - Description
   * - binning_number_output_1
     - binning_number_output_1
     - text
     - Text label or index identifying the bin in which the response value falls (e.g., 'Bin 3 [20, 30)'); returns an out-of-range indicator if the value lies outside [Min, Max].
