As the saying goes, if you truly understand a topic, you would be able to explain it to a child. I think WIRED does an excellent job here, offering definitions and a form of entry into the subject at various levels of difficulty, making the subject more accessible to all. Especially since we didn't get a chance to learn about machine learning in class, I thought this could be a good chance to get a basic introduction to it.In this video, I learned about how machine learning revolves around machine predictions based on data, and how it can affect our day to day life from music to ad recommendations. The video also touches on machine learning's relationship with algorithms, the supervised learning classic classifications vs unsupervised learning approach, and deep learning. It discusses what the potential future of machine learning could look like, and the potential biases of these predictions due to the bias in the data itself—and the humans that feed machines data.
Thank you, and I hope this will be as helpful and interesting to other students as it was to me. See you in class today!
In biology, ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny In computer science courses, pedagogy recapitulates ontogeny (and phylogeny). That is, the order of presentation of topics in a course generally follows the historic order of development of the field. This is not some mere convention. Just as the developments in the field depended on earlier discoveries, the student's understanding of advanced concepts builds on a comprehension of more basic ideas. Newton famously stood on the shoulders of giants.
The topics in this course included the following:
Rank the topics from the course in order from most useful or interesting (top) to least useful or interesting (bottom).

Also what topic did we fail to cover that would be useful?
My advice is to write as many C programs as possible over the break.
Here is a practice final exam and practice final solutions. There will be no questions on R or idem potence.
Here are the important concepts from Stamp:
Shell scripts: I might ask you to write a shell script. You should know the for loop.
If your grade on the final exam is higher than your lower midterm grade, it will replace that grade. The quality of mercy is not strained.

Alas, we did not get to machine learning. See scikit learn aka, sklearn. Python module for machine learning. Machine learning jupyter notebook
