Are you writing C code?

If you were asked to print all the elements in a list along with their indexes and the first thing that came to your mind was this -

Then you, my friend, are still writing C code. Allow me to introduce you to enumerate. It indexes all the elements in your list/string and your code becomes…

First things first, the title isn’t clickbait. I’ll demonstrate step-by-step how you can build your own image classification model using a custom dataset and just 5 lines of logic. To make things interesting, my model is going to classify minions.

The basic layout of this tutorial is going to be -

1. Create a dataset.
2. Upload it to our notebook.
3. Train our model.
4. Interpret the results.

Before that let’s take a few steps back and know what we’re working with here. Image classification is the process of taking an input (picture) and outputting a class (like ‘dog’). …
