Welcome to the sixteenth video of the series "Build your First Machine Learning Project". This is video is all about the Feature Encoding in Machine Learning.

Feature encoding is a process of converting categorical or non-numeric data into a numerical format that can be used as input for machine learning algorithms.

Many machine learning algorithms require input data to be in numerical form, and feature encoding is a crucial step in preparing data for these algorithms to make accurate predictions or classifications.

Let's understand it in deep.
