Episode 18: ML 016: Python as a Basis for Machine Learning with Ken Youens-Clark

<p><!-- wp:paragraph --></p> <p>Ken Youens-Clark regales us with his history through Jazz, Microsoft Tech, and Python and bioinformatics. Regular expressions are a fundamental part of data identification and cleaning. Also, we touch on the importance of types and tests as a specification for yourself and others. Python, as a data-science starting point, should be clean, functional, and friendly. Aspiring data scientists can learn a lot about the importance of fundamentals and clear encodings that fit the desired needs.</p> <p><!-- /wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2>Panel</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --><!-- wp:list --></p> <ul> <li>Beril Sirmacek</li> <li>Gant Laborde</li> </ul> <p><!-- /wp:list --><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2>Guest</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --><!-- wp:list --></p> <ul> <li>Ken Youens-Clark</li> </ul> <p><!-- /wp:list --><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2>Links</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --><!-- wp:list --></p> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.manning.com/books/tiny-python-projects" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Manning | Tiny Python Projects</a> by Ken Youens-Clark</li> <li><a href="http://tinypythonprojects.com/Tiny_Python_Projects.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Tiny Python Project PDF</a> by Ken Youens-Clark</li> <li><a href="http://tinypythonprojects.com/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Tiny Python Project</a> by Ken Youens-Clark</li> <li><a href="http://rosalind.info/problems/locations/" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">ROSALIND | Problems | Locations</a></li> <li><a href="https://twitter.com/kycl4rk" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Twitter: Ken Youens-Clark</a></li> </ul> <p><!-- /wp:list --><!-- wp:heading --></p> <h2>Picks</h2> <p><!-- /wp:heading --><!-- wp:list --></p> <ul> <li>Beril- <a href="https://www.youtube.com/drsirmacek" rel="noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">Youtube Channel: Beril Sirmacek</a></li> <li>Gant-<a href="https://twitter.com/jason_mayes/status/132657071016939
