Python train_test_split Guide
The train_test_split function’s purpose is:
- Splitting the dataset into two parts, a training set and a testing set, with the option to specify the splitting ratio.
- The dataset can be shuffled as needed.
- Using a specified random seed can ensure consistent splitting results each time the program is run.
- Multiple features and target variables can be simultaneously split.
- Stratified sampling can be applied to the segmented data as needed to maintain consistency in class proportions from the original dataset.
