5.0 out of 5 stars Accessible entrance to machine learning

I really like this book because everything is explained clearly and it assumes only basic previous knowledge. I was struggling to find a book that clearly and simply explained complicated machine learning concepts, and this is definitely a good start! I will definitely be using it as a reference moving forward. I would recommend this book to anyone new to machine learning and who finds other "starting" resources overwhelming.

Very useful to start to learn the basic Machine Learning concepts. With real examples and the "Math" part it's explained step by step and what is the meaning of all used symbols in the functions etc. Not to you implement, but it's aimed to you understand what are you looking for when you have an algorithm function in front of you.
The Quiz parts also allow to consolidate the important parts of the chapters.
