In this online workshop, we'll uncover how machine learning works, and will then use machine learning to make predictions with our data. We'll do so by building a machine learning algorithm (called a decision tree) from scratch, and then see using the algorithm to predict movie revenues.

All you'll need is Zoom and a browser to participate. Please RSVP to receive the Zoom link prior to the event.

This workshop is part of a series. You can come to all three, or pick and choose individual ones.

Introduction to Programming: Saturday, September 26, 11:30-1

Data Analysis with Pandas: Saturday, October 3, 11:30-1
