However, there are ways to make computers learn, at least in some situations. One technique that makes this possible is the perceptron learning algorithm.

Build your first neural network step by step! Learn how a perceptron works by coding it from the ground up—no libraries, just Python.

Dr. James McCaffrey of Microsoft Research uses code samples and screen shots to explain perceptron classification, a machine learning technique that can be used for predicting if a person is male or ...
