Major Description
Change includeFirst to dropLast and leave the default to true. There are couple benefits:
a. consistent with other tutorials of one-hot encoding (or dummy coding) (e.g., http://www.ats.ucla.edu/stat/mult_pkg/faq/general/dummy.htm)
b. keep the indices unmodified in the output vector. If we drop the first, all indices will be shifted by 1.
c. If users use StringIndex, the last element is the least frequent one.
