    "1269721": "Hi, this will be my first challenge. I'm a little intimidated - do I know enough? I've done part of a ZTM Udemy course, finished the into Kaggle Course and I'm reading the Master Algorithm by Pedro Domingos\n\nMy main goal is simply to learn. I am also an Undergrad in Materials Science & Engineering and have interests in Chemistry and research. I hope this challenge and data science in general will offer new perspectives (and new career opportunities!)\n\nI receive any advice to progress from my current novice position with appreciation!\n\nSully H",
