Weeks 11 and 18 are optional examination-readiness materials. These notebooks do not create weekly graded assignments.\n\n**Before running:** choose a Python 3 kernel in Jupyter or a CPU runtime in Colab. Run every cell from top to bottom with Shift+Enter. Setup installs missing free packages. No API key or external dataset download is required.\n\n**Learning target:** complete the calculation, inspect intermediate values, and explain why the protocol supports a limited claim.\n\n**Time:** about 25-45 minutes including reading, prediction, execution, and explain-back.\n",

Do not repeatedly edit code until a preferred score appears.\n\n**Completion criterion:** one executed notebook, one evidence JSON, and a brief claim/evidence/limitation statement.\n\n### Reference documentation\n- [NumPy user guide](https://numpy.org/doc/stable/user/)\n- [scikit-learn user guide](https://scikit-learn.org/stable/user_guide.html)\n- [Course repository](https://github.com/CHjonnyYu/MLES-Fall-2026)\n",
