Day 0 of #30daysofML
Deciding on a language.
Let me cut to the chase: It’s R. I will be redoing this series in Python or Lua (my new found love, which I will be writing about shortly) if I can at some point, but the idea of #30daysofML is to get me — and you, comfortable with Machine Learning and everything that comes with it — Working with Data, Algorithms, and deployment.
Let’s get started with the simple Titanic Dataset (It’s great to practice cleaning, processing, visualizations and predicting with). As with any engineer, I will be using documentation and medium blog from better engineers, and I will link you to it in the beginning.
Day 0 is committed to installing R, which is a fairly simple process. Download R and then download R Studio. You will need R to run R studio.
For some reason, Choco Install R didn’t work well for me, although suit yourselves. I am providing generic solutions — Move fast, break things, and learn shit ton. Let’s go.
