> Hello,
> I am trying to use the dummy encoding for categorical variables and feed it
> to a linear regression model. My dataset, however, has more than 1664
> categories, so Postgres cannot store it in one table. Is there any other way
> for encoding dummy variables that does not require the creation of a new
> table, perhaps the function can be streamlined into the regression model?
> Thank you for your help!
