Python: The programming language of machine learning

Hi,

Did you know Python is the lingua franca of machine learning?

You can't avoid learning Python if you work on machine learning problems. You need to know what other people's code means and you need to convey your ideas to them too.

Once you have learned a bit of basic Python, boost your skills on a fast track with Machine Learning Mastery's new book:

Not having sufficient Python skills is a problem.

You will get lost when you see your Python code doesn't work as expected, and you have no clue as to why.

For example, you need to know:

• How to understand the error messages from exceptions
• How to get things done quickly in Python so you can try more coding options
• How to trace down an issue or what you can do to make sure the code works

The biggest mistake that beginners make when trying to learn Python is that they try to learn everything without having a focus:

• ...they learn how to use a library that they will never find its use for
• ...they learn how a piece of code does something without understanding how Python reads that code

Machine Learning Mastery has developed a playbook titled Python for Machine Learning designed for developers to get you up to speed on the principal programming language that you must know for machine learning projects. The book has a whopping 308 code samples enclosed that you can play with, as well as a free NumPy cheat sheet poster in PDF format!

It covers:

• Only the topics that are most relevant to machine learning.
• Every Python code example is explained in detail.
• The code and syntax are always connected to practical use.
