I have a question about the functioning of PCA. I have a dataset with only 2 categorical attributes out of 9. Is it good to calculate pca between those two? Does it help me understanding anything special? here's my dataset
thanks

PCA is not recommended for categorical features. There are equivalent algorithms for categorical features like CATPCA and MCA.
