By far the most work involved in any Machine Learning (ML) project is the data | |
wrangling. We can do this in PHP but it's far different from building a web | |
site! We normally use PHP as a *programming language* for *creating stuff*. | |
Far less often do we use PHP as a *scripting language* for *automating tasks.* | |
Yet PHP works well for automating tasks because of the rapid development/ | |
turn-around time. We'll learn patterns for multi-step processing. We'll munge | |
databases, import and export spreadsheet data. Although we use CakePHP, the | |
principles are universal to any modern PHP framework. | |

This material appeared in December 2017 PHP Architect as | |
"Learning Machine Learning, Part Three: Data Wrangling". |
