discretizes
Converts to steps
Discretizes means converts continuous data into discrete categories or intervals.
In mathematics and computing, to discretize is to break a continuous range into separate, countable units: The algorithm discretizes the temperature readings into five-degree bands.
This process simplifies analysis but sacrifices some precision.
