> Suppose that you are trying to discretize a continuous attribute by using the ChiMerge Algorithm.
> When you merge two rows (because the $\chi^{2}$ statistic of the upper row falls below a threshold) you must the recompute at least one $\chi^{2}$ value.
> Is the new value necessarily greater than the old one?
> A formal proof is not necessary.
> Just an intelligent discussion.
