The notebook for this week is concerned with predicting university GPA scores, given scores from various exams undertaken in high school.
The dataset was provided with the online Statististics textbook, which is a collaborative effort to provide resources for undergraduate-level statistics.
The dataset can be downloaded from here for your convenience.
Students are invited to follow along with the notebook, and undertake the exercise to test their understanding of how to replace one predictor with another, yielding a new predictive model, with different characteristics.
The statsmodels package is used because it uses similar terminology to what
students might have seen in statistics modules.
