So select Not Installed, search for Pandas. Select it and hit Apply to kick off its installation. Then open up your Jupyter notebook and upload the PoliticsExercise.ipynb file from your course materials' DeepLearningIntro folder. Once it's imported, find it in the list and click on it to open it. The house votes data files we need are also included in the course materials. This example is actually an exercise that I want you to try yourself. I'll help you load up this data and clean it up, but after that, I will leave it up to you to actually implement a neural network with Keras to classify these things. So to recap, we will load up some data about a bunch of Congressional votes that various politicians made. And we're going to try to see if we can predict if a politician is Republican or Democrat just based on how…
