OrdinalEncoder is a class in the Python scikit-learn library (sklearn.preprocessing) that is used for encoding categorical features into ordinal integers. It converts each unique category in the input data to a corresponding integer, allowing for easier processing by machine learning algorithms. This encoder is useful when dealing with categorical data that has an inherent order or rank. The OrdinalEncoder supports both input matrices and dataframes, and can handle missing values during the encoding process.
