Look inside
In this liveProject, you’ll build your own Python data library to check three of the assumptions of the regression model: normality, linearity, and constant variance. Confidence in your regression models depends on how well you have satisfied these assumptions. Once you’ve developed functions and plots that can check these assumptions, you’ll master techniques for correcting them. With this library, you will expand your data science toolbox with important diagnostics tools that will allow you to be confident in your results.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.

book resources

When you start your liveProject, you get full access to the following books for 90 days.
