After doing a very basic data analysis, we can move on to coding our first neural network in Python. You can revise the concepts of neural networks in Chapter 2, Getting Started With Deep Learning Using Python, before moving on. We will now be creating a convolutional neural network (CNN), which will predict the handwritten digit labels.
We start by creating a new Jupyter notebook. You could name this Model.ipynb for convention. This notebook will be used to develop a pickled version of the deep learning model, which will later be put in a script that will generate predictions.
