Hello All,

When using any of the preprocessing options in sklearn, is it possible to 
select a subset of features (columns) in a dataset for preprocessing? Many 
datasets contain a mix of feature types (categorical, numerical, binary) and it 
doesn't seem like it would make sense to scale certain types of features (like 
binary and categorical), though I suppose if the information contained in them 
is not altered by the scaling, it may not hurt to have it scale the entire 
dataset regardless of feature type.  Any thoughts on the subject welcome. 
Thanks!
