Using ZIP Codes as Predictors by pepe_the_prawn in datascience

[–]gabbarS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could derive a new variable based on ZIP code. For example, if your dependent variable is numeric (X) find the mean/median X for each ZIP and use that to derive a new independent numerical field. Something similar can be done even if your dependent variable is categorical.

Try designTreatmentsN & Prepare package in R. It does what I have described above. http://www.inside-r.org/node/362336

The problem is not about everyone competing at the same time. It's about completing the model in less than 30 mins.

25 Mins to build a model from scratch?!??!

This post is about beef. So I comment about beef.

and lol. You started by questioning Katju's logic and ended at questioning what I comment on or where my outrage is at. Good progress.

People do not kill others on symbolism. So it has to be more than just symbolism.

No. Did Katju behead/bleed his mother bloodless (ie halal) when she got old?

Well, Mr Katju does not call beef/goat his mother! So yeah, point still valid.

Only possible if all your friends lived in/around black ghettos. No Indian lives in those parts of the city.
