Introduction to scikit-learn

Since you have already picked up this book, you probably don't need me to convince you why machine learning is important. However, you may still have doubts about why to use scikit-learn in particular. You may encounter names such as TensorFlow, PyTorch, and Spark more often during your daily news consumption than scikit-learn. So, let me convince you of my preference for the latter.

It plays well with the Python data ecosystem

scikit-learn is a Python toolkit built on top of NumPy, SciPy, and Matplotlib. These choices mean that it fits well into your daily data pipeline. As a data scientist, Python is most likely your language of choice since it is good for both offline analysis and real-time implementations. You will also be using tools such as pandas to load data from your database, which allows you to perform a vast amount of transformation to your data. Since both pandas and scikit-learn are built on top of NumPy, they play...
