First of all, apologies if this sounds confusing. I read a question on fit and fit_transform at the below link:
What's the difference between fit and fit_transform in scikit-learn models?
I had a follow-up question related to the same topic, however, I didn't have enough karma to post it as a comment. So I posted my question as an answer and had mentioned the situation in the answer itself. I also requested if a moderator could turn it into a comment instead of a question because that's where it belongs. A moderator deleted it saying it was a follow-up question and so I need to ask it as a new question, and provide the reference to the original question (link given above). I didn't have the karma to undelete it, neither could I reach out to the moderator, so I did as he told me to:
Follow Up Question - Why use fit when already have fit_transform?
However, now this question too has been deleted saying that this is not an original question, and so should have been asked at the original question! I wrote to the Stack Overflow Team, however, they couldn't help much since they are not SMEs in these respective fields, so they pointed me to this Meta site.
I am posting about my dilemma here hoping for a solution, any solution.
P.S. Best part is, I even got the answer to my query in the post that I created.
