Udacity_connect

This repo contains a collection of Jupyter Notebooks to accompany the Udacity Connect Intensive Machine Learning Nanodegree. The code is written for Python 2.7, but should be (mostly) compatible with Python 3.

List of Contents

• Week 1 (wk1/)

  • PythonPractice_1.ipynb: Introduction to Jupyter Notebook and basic Python programming (including data types, if and while loops, list comprehension, lambda expression, etc.).
