Beginner Machine Learning: 2) Multiple Linear Regression in Python

A regression model is a statistical model that estimates the relationship between one dependent variable and one or more independent variables using a line (or a plane in the case of two or more independent variables). Multiple linear regression (MLR), also known simply as multiple regression, is a statistical technique that uses several explanatory variables to predict the outcome of a response variable. Multiple regression is an extension of linear (OLS) regression that uses just one explanatory variable. Let's try to predict of startups using Multiple Linear Regression in Python We will be using Scikit-learn Library to import the necessary functions required for this Exercise. We will be using Pandas and Numpy for Data Exploration.
