Machine learning in Python with scikit-learn - Setting up Python for machine learning: scikit-learn and Jupyter Notebook

Want to get started with machine learning in Python? I'll discuss the pros and cons of the scikit-learn library, show how to install my preferred Python distribution, and demonstrate the basic functionality of the Jupyter Notebook. If you don't yet know any Python, I'll also provide four recommended resources for learning Python.
