The donors dataset contains 93,462 examples of people mailed in a fundraising solicitation for paralyzed military veterans. The donated column is 1 if the person made a donation in response to the mailing and 0 otherwise. This binary outcome will be the dependent variable for the logistic regression model.

The remaining columns are features of the prospective donors that may influence their donation behavior. These are the model's independent variables.

When building a regression model, it is often helpful to form a hypothesis about which independent variables will be predictive of the dependent variable. The bad_address column, which is set to 1 for an invalid mailing address and 0 otherwise, seems like it might reduce the chances of a donation. Similarly, one might suspect that religious interest (interest_religion) and interest in veterans affairs (interest_veterans) would be associated with greater charitable giving.

In this exercise, you will use these three factors to create a simple model of donation behavior. The dataset donors is available for you to use.
