I’m getting started with machine learning and have been told that scikit-learn is a good place to start. How do I use this package on Princeton’s HPC clusters?

scikit-learn is a Python library for machine learning that interoperates with pandas. This guide describes its usage on the Princeton HPC clusters.

The guide is [here](https://github.com/PrincetonUniversity/intro_ml_libs/tree/master/scikit_learn).
