None 0

No grouping is requested.

Automatic 1

Chooses best grouping technique among EqualArea, Clusters, and Threshold methods.

EqualAreas 2

Specifies that when the distribution of continuous values is plotted as a curve, the areas under the curve covered by each bucket range are equal.

Clusters 3

Finds buckets by performing single-dimensional clustering on the input values by using the K-Means algorithm.

Thresholds 4

Specifies that when the distribution of continuous values is plotted as a curve, buckets are be created based on the inflection points (where gradient changes direction) in their distribution curve.

UserDefined 5

Specifies that the user can define a custom grouping of the members.
