Exercise

Flight duration model: Adding departure time

In the previous exercise the departure time was bucketed and converted to dummy variables. Now you're going to include those dummy variables in a regression model for flight duration.

The data are in flights. The km, org_dummy and depart_dummy columns have been assembled into features, where km is index 0, org_dummy runs from index 1 to 7 and depart_dummy from index 8 to 14.

The data have been split into training and testing sets and a linear regression model, regression, has been built on the training data. Predictions have been made on the testing data and are available as predictions.
