Understanding the basics of machine learning

First of all, we will understand what machine learning is. Traditionally, programming is all about defining all the steps to reach a certain predefined outcome. During this process of programming, we define each of the minute steps using a programming language that help us achieve our outcome. To give you a basic understanding, I'll take a general example. Suppose that you want to write a program that will help you draw a face. You may first write the code that draws the left eye, then write the code that draws the right eye, then the nose, and so on. Here, you are writing the code for each facial attribute, but ML flips this approach. In ML, we define the outcome and the program learns the steps ...
