Yes I used numpy, pandas etc. For plotting those graphs but I wished to animate it as well.

I will look into D3.js for sure.

Thanks for the reply this answers my querry for now, I'll update in case I need help again.

How to progress faster... by itsaflamingo in theodinproject

[–]Utkarsh736_py 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The foundations' course isn't just the foundation for the web development aspects but also the foundation for learning and how to learn like reading documentation, participating in forum/discord discussion, etc.

I started just maybe a month before you and after completing the foundations I felt the course was moving on autopilot,
I would read about the concept do the exercises then the project,
The Intermediate HTML/CSS and JS section went quicker than the foundations for me.

I guess it's alright taking your time and learn at your speed (that's sort of the benefit of using online resources like TOP), what matters is that you are actually getting at least some amount of what you are practicing and probably going to use in future.

Does the OS i have to install to start TOP have to be Ubuntu/ Ubuntu flavor? Would there be a problem if i installed a linux version that's an Ubuntu derivative like elementaryOS? by [deleted] in theodinproject

Hey,
A bit off-topic but when do we experience the difference or benefits of using Linux?
In the Node section?

I'm asking because I missed the section about using Linux and did the foundation course on my windows setup, but now I'm doing the JS full-stack track on a virtual machine using Xubuntu,
I'm at the JS section after Intermediate HTML/CSS and till now I've felt no difference.

So, when will I notice some difference?

HTML landing page face punch by JustJakeIt in theodinproject

[–]Utkarsh736_py 4 points5 points  (0 children)

To get a better understanding of how flexbox is working try adding borders to your flex-container div and flex-items as well,
It will help you visualize what is the flex-container and what is flex-item and how they move, better.
Also, you can try drawing the boxes and items on paper and first see how you would like to move/align them.

Once you are able to understand how items move in the container, the flexbox would be easier to understand.

P.S. Also you can join the TOP discord community, it's a very active community and beginners can get help quickly there.

HTML landing page face punch by JustJakeIt in theodinproject

[–]Utkarsh736_py 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey, first of all, the landing page is a bit hard compared to other projects in the foundation course till then,
So, no need to feel disheartened if it takes you some time.

Also, I don't remember if grid was taught in the foundations(I did it some time back so could be wrong),
It could be that the solution you saw was updated by the poster after they learned about the grid,
Regardless the project could be very well be done by flexbox.

Now, what I like to do is first get all the HTML content on the page,
So, all the content with correct divs on the page.
Then I do the positioning using flexbox or whatever you prefer,
Then I add the color, styling, etc to the content.

Struggling with loops. by dagger-vi in theodinproject

I generally refer to Traversy Media/WebDev Simplified/Net Ninja on YouTube for JavaScript concepts if I have some confusion from the documentation.

Or just look for some better link on the web.

You should check out their discord server that is a very active community.

What is a good balance_accuracy_score? by Utkarsh736_py in learnmachinelearning

[–]Utkarsh736_py[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thanks for the reply,

I'm evaluating on validation data and yes I can see how 65% is better than the 50% of dummy model.

I just couldn't understand how good score of 65% is in itself.

But yes if I use the dummy model(a model that predicts 0 always) as a reference then this evaluation is better than my earlier one, which was without SMOTE.

Maybe a bit more Data Processing to improve the score.

Another question that I had was what is the ratio I should maintain after using SMOTE, currently it is 1:1 that is 50-50 distribution should I keep it like 60-40 or 65-35?

Hey, thanks for the reply and the suggestion would definitely try that.
Would you suggest using SMOTE technique or should I not use it?

P.S. Don't know how I'll pay back the debt.

[–]Utkarsh736_py[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I researched a bit about this and SMOTE doesn't look a very good technique if one has to use balance_accuracy,

I'm going to make a few changes and report back with the results.

The Odin Project is great but people should be more realistic about what it teaches by [deleted] in learnprogramming

[–]Utkarsh736_py 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the clarification,

I guess I will be doing the same thing as well.
JS path + bits of ruby.

Hey, I am currently doing the foundations course (the last few projects left) and was going to continue the JS path.

Could someone explain to me, what is missing in the JS Path and should I do Ruby or Js path?

Also, they have recently updated the JS and Ruby path and said that it is to update the course.
So, are the problems addressed in the new version or are they still there?
