more...K-Nearest Neighbors Algorithm is a non-parametric supervised learning classifier that uses proximity to make classifications or predictions about the grouping of an individual data point. While this algorithm is mostly used for classification problems, It can be used for solving a regression problem too, It is often used as a classification algorithm due to its assumption that similar points in the dataset can be found near one another; k-nearest neighbors algorithm is one of the simplest algorithms in supervised machine learning. We will build our algorithm in this article as a classifier.
