How to get a current time and date using pyhton ?

 Here are some examples using datatime module to get current time and date

# %% Import necessary library

from datetime import date , time , timezone , datetime

# %% Run using function .now to get right present time

datetime.now()

... datetime.datetime(2020, 8, 31, 11, 23, 42, 962037)

# %%

dt = datetime.now()

dt.strftime('%c')

... 'Mon Aug 31 10:45:55 2020'

# %% To get only time

t = dt.time()
t.strftime('%r')

... '10:45:55 AM'

# %% To get only date

d = date.today()
d.isoformat()

... '2020-08-31'


# %% You can also use this for various style

a.strftime('%m-%d') # month and date

... '08-31'

a.strftime('%m-%a') # month and day

'08-Mon'

Gradient Descent with RSME

Optimization Alorithms Ex : G.D. , S.D. ,  Adam, RMS prop , momentum , adelta Gradient Descent is an  optimization algorithm that find a best fit line and local minima of a differentiable function for given training data set. S imply used to find the coefficients (weights) and intercept (bias) that minimize a cost function as far as possible.  There are three types of  g radient descent techniques:   Regular Batch GD (Gradient Descent) -  Studiously descend the curve in one path towards one minima ; every hop calculates the cost function for entire training data. If training data is large, one should not use this. Random GD (Stochastic GD) -   Calculates the Cost function for only one (randomly selected) training data per hop ; tend to jump all over the place due to randomness but due to it actually jump across minima’s.  Mini Batch gradient descent - Somewhere midway between the above 2. Does the calculation for a bunch of random data poin...

Why python ? What is Python?

Python is a generally interpreted and  interactive dynamic symmetric   high-level  object oriented programming language. It is widely used in Machine Learning today. Pretty easy to understand, learn, code and explain because it has very crisp and clear syntaxes than other languages.  Guido van Rossum made Python in 1991, named his programming language after the television show Monty Python's Flying Circus. Python has got features or derived features from ABC named programming language. Interactive - The result will be printed on the screen, immediately return, in the next line as we entered. High-level - Humans can easy to interpret; the source code contains easy-to-read syntax that is later converted into a low-level language (0 , 1) Dynamic-symmetric – Don’t need to clarify the data type. It Allows the type casting. Type Casting –  We can transform the one data type in another data type Object Oriented – language is focused on Object...
