Scikit-Learn is a Python library that provides simple and efficient tools for implementing supervised and unsupervised machine learning algorithms. The library is accessible to everyone because it is open source and commercially usable. It is built on NumPY, SciPy, and matplolib libraries, which means it is reliable, robust, and core to the Python language.

Scikit-Learn is focused on data modeling rather than data loading, cleansing, munging or manipulating. It is also very easy to use and relatively clean of programming bugs.
