num_breaks

This parameter controls how many bins are used when discretizing predictors.
Used in <code><a href="https://recipes.tidymodels.org/reference/step_discretize.html">recipes::step_discretize()</a></code> and <code>embed::step_discretize_xgb()</code>.

Many models contain tuning parameters (i.e. parameters that
cannot be directly estimated from the data). These tools can be used
to define objects for creating, simulating, or validating values for
such parameters.

num_breaks function

<dl><dt>range</dt>
<dd>A two-element vector holding the defaults for the smallest and
largest possible values, respectively. If a transformation is specified,
these values should be in the transformed units.</dd>
<dt>trans</dt>
<dd>A <code>trans</code> object from the <code>scales</code> package, such as
<code>scales::transform_log10()</code> or <code>scales::transform_reciprocal()</code>. If not provided,
the default is used which matches the units used in <code>range</code>. If no
transformation, <code>NULL</code>.</dd></dl>
