# BinaryCatQuery

Queries an existing binary category with some text to see if that text belongs in the binary category.

Text or documents that belong in the binary category give a `POSITIVE` result, which means that the answer to the question that the binary category asks (for example "Is this document spam?") is yes. If the text or document does not belong in the binary category, it gives a `NEGATIVE` result. IDOL also returns a score (in the range 0-1) that indicates how well the document fits into the binary category.

Note: This is an administrative action that can be sent only from AdminClients (which are set in the `[Server]` section of the configuration file).

## Example

    http://12.3.4.56:9000/action=BinaryCatQuery&Name=spam_binarycat&QueryText=How to become an instant millionaire

This action uses port `9000` to instruct IDOL Category Component, which is located on a machine with the IP address `12.3.4.56`, to check whether the text How to become an instant millionaire belongs in the binary category called `spam_binarycat`.
