Your First Classifier

With TensorFlow now installed, we need to kick the tires. We will do so by writing our first classifier and then training and testing it from start to finish!

Our first classifier will be a handwriting recognizer. One of the most common datasets to train is the MNIST handwritten digits dataset. We'll be using a similar dataset called notMNIST, which features the first ten letters of the English alphabet.
