title: if you have a numerical target of two classes 0 and 1 and all the features are numerical as well, should i encode the target?
body: <p>I am working on a binary classification problem, my dataset contains numerical features and the target class as well is numerical where I have two classes either 0 or 1
  in this case while preprocessing the dataset, should I go through the data encoding step or it is not necessary in this case??</p>
