    Summary: 
    Machine learning is an exciting new way to use computers to perform tasks that require the ability to learn from experience. In order to make machine learning a reality, programmers rely on special languages, such as Python and R, and new types of tools. What machine learning is, when it can help perform a new class of computer tasks, and how to implement machine learning using Python and R. This book does not assume that the reader has years of experience using programming languages. It provides the much-needed entry point for people who really could use machine learning to accomplish practical tasks, but dont necessarily have the skills required to use on more advanced books. How to perform practical tasks and useful work without getting overly involved in the underlying math principles, fun ways to play with new tools and learn as a result, and how to separate facts from myth to see how machine learning is useful in todays world. Learn how to install the free R programming language on Windows, Linus or Mac OS X. R is a programming language used for statistical analysis and graphics. It is widely used among statisticians and R's popularity has increased substantially in recent years. R is freely available under the GNU General Public License. Installing Python on Linux, Mac OS X or Windows. Python is an interpreted programming language. As of August 2016, it is the fifth most popular computer language. This book provides you with a wealth of information about specific machine learning packages such as caret (R) and NumPy (Python).
