If you're a software engineer looking to add machine learning to your skillset, this is the place to start. 

This course will teach you to write useful code and create impactful machine learning applications immediately. From the start, you'll be given all the tools that you need to create industry-level machine learning projects. Rather than reading through dense theory, you’ll learn practical skills and gain actionable insights. Topics covered include data analysis/visualization, feature engineering, supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and deep learning. All of these topics are taught using industry-standard frameworks: NumPy, pandas, scikit-learn, XGBoost, TensorFlow, and Keras.

Basic knowledge of Python is a prerequisite to this course.

This course was created by AdaptiLab, a company specializing in evaluating, sourcing, and upskilling enterprise machine learning talent. It is built in collaboration with industry machine learning experts from Google, Microsoft, Amazon, and Apple.

<h2>A. Sorting by feature</h2>
<p>When we deal with a dataset that has many features, it is often useful to sort the dataset. This makes it easier to view the data and spot trends in the values.</p>
<p>In pandas, the <code><a href="https://pandas.pydata.org/pandas-docs/stable/reference/api/pandas.DataFrame.sort_values.html" target="_blank">sort_values</a></code> function allows us to sort a DataFrame by one or more of its columns. The first argument is either a column label or a list of column labels to sort by.</p>
<p>The <code>ascending</code> keyword argument allows us to specify whether to sort in ascending or descending order (default is ascending order, i.e. <code>ascending=True</code>).</p>
<p>The code below demonstrates how to use <code>sort_values</code> with a single column label. The first example sorts by <code>'yearID'</code> in ascending order, while the second sorts <code>'playerID'</code> in descending lexicographic (alphabetical) order.</p>
