Learning goal

Set up and run a first simple scikit-learn program.

Read one card at a time. Focus on the main idea first, then look at the visual on the right to help it stick.

It is free, beginner-friendly, and works offline after setup.

It provides ready-made tools for common ML tasks.

Its code patterns are consistent across models.

No GPU or cloud service is required.

It is widely used in real small-scale ML work.

Remember

scikit-learn is powerful enough for real learning and simple enough for beginners.
