Exercise

Load data using pandas

Before you can train a machine learning model, you must first import data. There are several valid ways to do this, but for now, we will use a simple one-liner from pandas: pd.read_csv(). Recall from the video that the first argument specifies the path or URL. All other arguments are optional.

In this exercise, you will import the King County housing dataset, which we will use to train a linear model later in the chapter.
