Data Science Questions

1. In linear regression, dummy variables are used to represent categorical values in regression analysis by coding each category as a separate predictor variable. 2. A Type II error occurs when a true alternative hypothesis is mistakenly rejected. 3. The numbers 1-4 representing geographical areas (South, East, North, West) are an example of categorical data.

a strong learner)  Better to improve a model by taking many small steps
than fewer large steps
