If you write ´help()´ you can access the interactive help feature. Also, you can practice with this tutorial. In particular, we recommend the section ´3 An Informal Introduction to Python´.
In the following post, we will learn about Jupyter Notebooks, create on of our own and get everything ready to start working on libraries. Don´t miss it!
All the posts in this tutorial are here:
- Introduction: Machine Learning with Python for all audiences.
- Python for all (1): Installation of the Anaconda environment.
- Python for all (2): What are the Jupiter Notebook ?. We created our first notebook and practiced some easy commands.
- Python for all (3): What are bookstores ?. We prepare the environment.
- Python for all (4): We started the experiment properly. Data loading, exploratory analysis (dimensions of the dataset, statistics, visualization, etc.)
- Python for all (5) Final: Creation of the models and estimation of their accuracy
