Activity 25: Using Machine Learning to Predict Customer Return Rate Accuracy

Solution:

  1. The first step asks you to download the dataset and display the first five rows.

    Import the necessary pandas and numpy libraries to begin with:

    import pandas as pd
    import numpy as np
  2. Next, load the CHURN.csv file:
    df = pd.read_csv('CHURN.csv')
  3. Now, display the headers using .head():
    df.head()

    You should get the following output:

    Figure 11.37: Dataset displaying the data as output

  4. The next step asks you to check for NaN values. The following code reveals that there are none:
    df.info()

    You should get the following output:

    Figure 11.38: Information on the dataset

  5. The next step is done for you. The following code converts 'No' and 'Yes' into 0 and 1:
    df['Churn'] = df['Churn'].replace(to_replace=['No', 'Yes'], value=[0, 1])
  6. The next step asks you to correctly define X and y. The correct solution...
