I have been studying Statistics with Python, and since statsmodels is Python’s library that deals with statistics, I decided to try to solve the Titanic conundrum using statsmodels.

I entered the Kaggle Titanic competition and only used statsmodels functions to analyse the data and then to make predictions on it. Imagine my surprise, therefore, when I received an email from Kaggle this morning saying that my notebook had been upvoted and another email saying that I had won a bronze medal!

I am quite pleased to be receiving bronze medals for my work, but I would be even more pleased if I could be awarded a silver medal. I will just have to keep studying so I can improve my skills and make my wish a reality.

I have prepared a Code with Me video that can be viewed to see how I coded this piece of work, the link being here:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pQVOhXp0hJ0&t=9s
