If you are new to machine learning?

As per Kaggle (The Home of Data Science) if you are new to machine learning it is recommendation to do these interactive Titanic Dataset tutorials:
  • From R people - Provided by DataCamp this tutorial.
  • For Python people – Provided by Dataquest this tutorial.
More info related to the Titanic Dataset see the this url

I am doing the R tutorial and it is brilliant, easily to follow and fully interactive - You do not need R/R-Studio installed on your machine - you just need browser. I must admit, I used the R/R-Studio for an additional validation. However this is not needed, you could do that all via interactive console.
