Assembling columns

The final stage of data preparation is to consolidate all of the predictor columns into a single column.

An updated version of the flights data, which takes into account all of the changes from the previous few exercises, has the following predictor columns:

  • mon, dom and dow
  • carrier_idx (indexed value from carrier)
  • org_idx (indexed value from org)
  • km
  • depart
  • duration
