No, not at all. The point is that there's specific syntax in the language for making this part of the function definition, as it were. New concept for me.

The only difference between this and a large modern tech company is that the latter has this process automated. If anything, large tech companies have more respect for the need for process, as they understand how critical it is for everyt

For those of you interested in this stuff, this course (10-702) is the second in a series. The 10-701 course, "Intro to Machine Learning", is a fantastic course as well, even if just for the exercises. This year's version is
