Recode

Recode is a process used in data analysis and programming that involves changing data from one format, structure, or encoding to another. This might mean converting text to a different category, transforming numerical values into groups, or changing how data is stored for better analysis or compatibility. Essentially, it helps ensure data is consistent and suitable for different applications or insights. Recode is a common step when preparing data for research, reporting, or software systems to make the information more meaningful and easier to work with.
