HCLTech Jr. Data Scientist Interview Questions and Answers

Q1. What is precision and recall
Ans. 
Precision and recall are evaluation metrics used in machine learning to measure the performance of a classification model.
• Precision is the ratio of correctly predicted positive observations to the total predicted positive observations.

• Recall is the ratio of correctly predicted positive observations to the all observations in actual class.

• Precision is important when the cost of false positives is high, while recall is i...read more

Q2. Difffereence between append and extend
Ans. 
Append adds a single element to a list while extend adds multiple elements.
• Append adds the element as it is to the end of the list.

• Extend takes an iterable and adds each element of the iterable to the end of the list.

• Append can be used to add a single element to a list.

• Extend can be used to add multiple elements to a list.

• Example: list1 = [1, 2, 3], list2 = [4, 5], list1.append(4) will result in [1, 2, 3, 4], list1.ext
