What happens if there are continuous features in data passed to k-modes

If I use k-modes instead of k-prototypes, what happens to the continuous features? are they ignored or they are discretized automatically ?

@ostwalprasad , they get interpreted as categorical features, so they immediately get encoded as such. There is no smart logic based on type in kmodes.
