🔒 numpy question

[livid plover]

i have finished the numpy quickstart in this document : https://numpy.org/doc/stable/user/quickstart.html and i wonder if this all i need to know in numpy for ml

Remember to:

• Ask your Python question, not if you can ask or if there's an expert who can help.
• Show a code sample as text (rather than a screenshot) and the error message, if you've got one.
• Explain what you expect to happen and what actually happens.

:warning: Do not pip install anything that isn't related to your question, especially if asked to over DMs.

Closes after a period of inactivity, or when you send !close.

[abstract grail]

No. But you don't need to spend any additional time just reading about numpy.

[livid plover]

i will practice when i finish what i need on numpy

[abstract grail]

Find/come up with a beginner ML project, and just learn whatever numpy functionality you need to do that one project.

[livid plover]

like what

[abstract grail]

What do you want to do with ML?

[livid plover]

deep learning

but still dont know how

[abstract grail]

That's a broad category. And not the one you want to start with

[jovial locust]

@abstract grail can u please check my ticket ,after u done here ,I been looking for a solution whole day to midi output not open error.

[abstract grail]

Please don't cross post in other people's threads

[livid plover]

i still preparing for ml like learning maths and some modules

[abstract grail]

I recommend starting by making a classifier. (And learning what classification is.)

[livid plover]

classifying what

[abstract grail]

Whatever you can find a dataset for.

You could also try making a house value predictor

Which is more curve fitting than classification

[livid plover]

u mean like forming a func (i forgot the name of the algo) and based on it , u will predict the price of house

[abstract grail]

Pretty much

More advanced technologies like interactive LLMs depend on a lot of the same concepts.

[livid plover]

the improvement that i made in ml is learning python , github , lineaire algebra and numpy

[abstract grail]

Those are some of the tools. You also need to learn the theory.

[livid plover]

so i cant make that project with thoses knowledges?

[abstract grail]

No. Those are tools. You still need to know what you're trying to do.

You wouldn't hire a carpenter who says he knows hammer and wood.

[livid plover]

gotta learn data structures and algos?

[abstract grail]

No. Learn about different types of machine learning algorithms (which are not the algorithms you learn about in a DSA course) and how they use the training data to produce a model.

[livid plover]

so no need to take a course on data structures

[abstract grail]

If you want to be an ml engineer, you will take one during university

Whether you "need" to take it depends on what you mean by "need". It will be required for the degree that you need to get a job.

[livid plover]

m 16

[abstract grail]

That's fine

[livid plover]

so still young to get hired

[abstract grail]

Your first concern right now should be doing well in the math courses that you're currently taking

Those will be important for getting into university

[livid plover]

i will replace the DSA course with a ml algos course ?

[abstract grail]

Do you even have the option to take these courses right now?

Or are you wanting to do courses on Coursera?

[livid plover]

i mean on the future

after like 1 or 2 mounths

i would be ready fr ml

[abstract grail]

To be an ml engineer, a computer science degree is virtually required, and every computer science degree program will have a general DSA course that is not about ML.

Every CS student will take it, even if they don't go into ML

[livid plover]

so i need to take it or not , m confused

[abstract grail]

You will have to take it in the future. You do not need to take a DSA course before you enroll in a computer science degree program at a university

[livid plover]

bt if i started the ml before university?

[abstract grail]

You can start learning about ML on your own right now if you want

[livid plover]

what modules do i need

numpy , pandas

maybe namba

[abstract grail]

It's not about slapping a bunch of modules together

[abstract grail]

You can start doing this right now

[livid plover]

m just trying to get ready u know

[abstract grail]

You will probably use a combination of pandas, numpy, and sklearn

[abstract grail]

You are ready

[livid plover]

there is a module for visualization fuctions and statistics (forgot it s name)

do i need to know about one like it

[livid plover]

i have just finish lineaire algebra from digital learning hub channel(free course on youtube)

and now i gotta take one in calculus

[abstract grail]

My train arrived, so I must now depart

To celebrate freedom

🇺🇸

[livid plover]

?

[abstract grail]

I was talking to you while I was on a train

[livid plover]

ok

[abstract grail]

But my train arrived it where I was trying to go

[livid plover]

ok , feel free
