Introduction

I have listened for so many times that the course: Machine Learning by Andrew Ng is one of the best introductory course for machine learning. Now, I have finished the first two week's classed and pass the first programming project. I truly fathom out the deliberate design of this course. The passion and meticulous designed project impress me as well. It is so particular that I feel like someone is teaching me hand-by-hand. Coursera uses a kind of judging method which is not like the common OJ that you upload your program and they run it and test it with their test data. Coursera uses an aggregate local submit module that can do all the stuff. You just need to generate a token that linked to your coursera account so that it can upload your progress. It is so cooooool!!!!!! ##### Potential Submit Problem Once I tried to submit the program, it says According to https://blog.csdn.net/qq_44498043/article/details/105904715 and https://blog.csdn.net/weixin_45923568/article/details/104193579 , I found out that the error is caused by the vulnerable grammar that it used before. And in the latest version of matlab, matlab banned those kinds of grammar in order to increase the stability. So all we need is to go to the coursera website and download the new version of submit module.
