Cross-Validation From Scratch and a Surprise at n=100

Textbooks say LOOCV has the lowest bias but highest variance compared to 10 and 5-fold. Coded a K-Fold CV from scratch for learning to test that on simulated data 🔍📊 — and at n=1000 it holds up. At n=100? Not so much. 🤔

Exploring and Learning Quantum Computing Part 1

Dipping my toes into quantum computing 🌊 — circuits, gates, superposition. Still very much a beginner, but hands-on experiments with qiskit + R’s reticulate made it click a little more. Baby steps!
