Real Estate

This dataset includes the date of purchase, house age, location, distance to nearest MRT station, and house price of unit area. We need to predict the house price for a particular region based on the given data.

We will create a model with the following steps:

Download and explore the dataset
Prepare the dataset for training
Create a linear regression model
Train the model to fit the data
Make predictions using the trained model

This assignment builds upon the concepts from the first 2 lectures. It will help to review these Jupyter notebooks:

Step 1: Download and explore the data

Let us begin by downloading the data. We'll use the download_url function from PyTorch to get the data as a CSV (comma-separated values) file.
