Hello, the course was very informative and entertraining.
I still don’t understand why we measure differents parts of the body of a penguin then use machine learning with complex formula to get a not very accurate result in its identification instead having just a look at the color of its beak (black for Chinstrap, orange for Gentoo, brown for Adélie) but the course was very pleasant.
Have nice merited summer holyday and I hope to see you again for the next course!
Thanks for the feedback!

We just wanted a dataset that is simple enough and yet complex enough to illustrate how to build and evaluate classification models. Also sometimes the most predictive features are not available in the data.
