scikit-learn Classical

scikit-learn is Python's leading library for classical machine learning: linear/logistic regression, decision trees, random forests, SVM, k-means clustering, and dimensionality reduction. It's built on NumPy and integrates with the PyData ecosystem (Pandas, Matplotlib). scikit-learn is widely used for tabular data tasks in industry and academia. The library emphasizes simplicity, documentation, and best practices (cross-validation, pipelines, metrics). It's the de facto standard for classical ML; nearly all data scientists know it.
