Q1. Explain Sigmoid Function
Ans. 
Sigmoid function is a mathematical function that maps any real value to a value between 0 and 1.
• Sigmoid function is commonly used in machine learning for binary classification problems.

• It is defined as f(x) = 1 / (1 + e^(-x)), where e is the base of the natural logarithm.

• The output of the sigmoid function is always in the range (0, 1).

• It is used to convert a continuous input into a probability value.

• Example: f(0) = 0.5
