To group a numeric column containing the difference between 2 dates into same_day, day+1, >1 day

i want to convert a numeric column containing difference between 2 dates like (0,1,2,3..... so on) into 3 groups --> same_day, d+1 and >1 day

How to convert the numeric column and categorize them into 3 groups?

 

days between (difference b/w 2 dates)|  ---> | 3 categories

0                                                                            same day

1                                                                            D+1 day

2                                                                             >1 day

3                                                                             >1 day

....
