discretize()

Statistics

discretize() is a MATLAB®-compatible statistics function for group the data in x into bins defined by the monotonically increasing edges vector, returning the bin index (or the mapped value) for each element. Run it online in your browser with SimLab — free, no install, no license required.

Frequently Asked Questions about discretize()

Is the discretize() function free to use in SimLab?

Yes. SimLab is 100% free — no signup, no license, and no usage limits. You can run discretize() and 510+ other MATLAB®-compatible functions directly in your browser at simulations4all.com/simlab.

Do I need to install MATLAB to use discretize()?

No. SimLab runs entirely in your web browser with zero installation. The discretize() function works without any MATLAB® license or software download.

What does discretize() do?

Group the data in x into bins defined by the monotonically increasing edges vector, returning the bin index (or the mapped value) for each element. It is a MATLAB®-compatible statistics function available in SimLab with the same calling syntax as MATLAB® — typically: discretize(x, edges).

Can I run discretize() in my browser?

Yes. Open SimLab at simulations4all.com/simlab, write or paste code that calls discretize(), and run it. Execution happens locally in your browser — no data leaves your machine.
