Q3. When to use Relu and when not?
Ans. 
Use ReLU for hidden layers in deep neural networks, avoid for output layers.
• ReLU is commonly used in hidden layers to introduce non-linearity and speed up convergence.

• Avoid using ReLU in output layers for regression tasks as it can lead to vanishing gradients.

• Consider using Leaky ReLU or Sigmoid for output layers depending on the task.

• ReLU is computationally efficient and helps in preventing the vanishing gradient prob...read more

Ans. 
Train-test split is a method used to divide a dataset into training and testing sets for model evaluation in Scikit learn.
• Split the dataset into two subsets: training set and testing set

• Training set is used to train the model, while testing set is used to evaluate the model's performance

• Common split ratios are 70-30 or 80-20 for training and testing sets

• Example: X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y,
