Let's Write a Decision Tree Classifier from Scratch: Machine Learning Recipes #8

Decision Tree classifiers are intuitive, interpretable, and one of my favorite supervised learning algorithms. In this episode, I'll walk you through writing a Decision Tree classifier from scratch, in pure Python. I'll introduce concepts including Decision Tree Learning, Gini Impurity, and Information Gain. Understanding how to accomplish this was helpful to me when I studied Machine Learning for the first time, and I hope it will prove useful to you as well.
