Binary clustering - math test
In the education system tests and examinations are major features. The advantage of examination system is that it can be one of the ways to differentiate between good and poor performers. The examination system puts the onus on students to upgrade for next standard for which they should appear and pass exams. It creates responsibility on students to study on regular basis. The exam systems prepare the students to meet the challenges of future. It helps them to analyze reason and communicate their ideas effectively in a fixed time period. On the other hand few draw backs are noticed such as slow learners cannot perform well in test and this creates inferior complexity among students.
Getting ready
In order to perform binary clustering, we shall be using a dataset collected on math tests.
Step 1 - collecting and describing data
The dataset titled math test
shall be used. This is available in the TXT format titled math test.txt
. The dataset is in standard format....
