Research direction

Open 02_ml_pipeline.ipynb and review its markdown and code cells in order; first run the notebook to understand the current outputs and train/test split. Address the requested presentation, explanations, output handling, and confusion-matrix considerations, then rerun it to confirm the tutorial remains coherent.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

  1. More spacing in text
  2. Avoid italics
  3. More comments in code to explain code
  4. list(falklands_df.columns) is the line necessary - as the output is very long
  5. train/test split - could be clearer - test/train split 20% and 25% is confusing
  6. Explain features even if they are small e.g. %%time
  7. Consider if using sklearn.metrics.confusion_matrix() and sklearn.metrics.ConfusionMatrixDisplay() could make code simplier?
