Random Forest Hacks
The Random Forest hack is an open community for students curious about data and ML. We explore topics like Python programming, data computations, and ML algorithms in a fun and collaborative way. Whether you're new to coding or already a pro, our goal is to invite you to learn and solve community problems using data and ML.
We keep things interesting with our hackathons and learning tracks that build knowledge, teamwork, and creative problem-solving. Join us to learn, experiment, and get inspired by the possibilities of technology and data. This is a great way to geek out with friends over cool data and ML projects!
