The C4.5 Algorithm in Machine Learning with Python
The C4.5 algorithm is a widely used machine learning algorithm for building decision trees. Decision trees are a form of predictive model that can be used for both classification and regression problems. C4.5 is an improved version of the ID3 (Iterative Dichotomiser 3) algorithm developed by Ross Quinlan and was introduced in the 1990s. Here’s how the C4.5 algorithm works and how to use it in Python.
