Machine learning algorithms are at the core of a rapidly evolving field in computer science. At a high level, machine learning involves developing systems that can learn from and make decisions or predictions based on data, without being explicitly programmed for each specific task. This is a departure from traditional programming, where developers provide explicit instructions for every action a program takes. Instead, machine learning algorithms are designed to identify patterns, learn from observations, and improve their performance over time as they are exposed to more data.
