Description
A small, complete example of the issue
df = pd.DataFrame({"data": np.arange(0, 10, 0.1)})
v = pd.cut(df.data, [0, 1, 2, 5, 10], include_lowest=True).rename("cuts")
df.join(pd.get_dummies(v))Expected Output
A data frame similar to the input dataframe with 4 additional variables for the cut categories.
What happens
----> 3 df.join(pd.get_dummies(v))
