A random model

In this exercise you will reconstruct the cumulative gains curve's baseline, that is, the cumulative gains curve of a random model.

To do so, you need to construct random predictions. The plot_cumulative_gain method requires two values for these predictions: one for the target to be 0 and one for the target to be 1. These values should sum to one, so a valid list of predictions could for instance be [(0.02,0.98),(0.27,0.73),...,(0.09,0.91)].

In Python, you can generate a random value between values a and b as follows:

import random
random_value = random.uniform(a,b)

Anleitung zur Übung

Import the random, matplotlib and scikitplot modules
Construct a list random_predictions that contains random numbers between 0 and 1.
Adjust the list random_predictions such that it contains tuples (r,a) with r the original value of the list and a such that \(r+a=1\).
The true values of the target are in targets_test. Show the cumulative gains graph of your random model.
