Introduction to scaling #
The scale of your features matter for many machine learning algorithms. Having income values that range from 100 to 100,000 and ages that range from 0 to 100 can cause issues because of the large difference in scale of these two data columns. To deal with this, it is standard to rescale the data. There ...
