If you are flying somewhere, it becomes a very bizarre experience if the flight gets delayed. We can't do much in that regard, but given the historical dataset, we can predict and know well ahead whether a particular flight will get delayed or not. That's the problem we will solve as a case study.
The complete solution to the problem of predicting a flight delay will be huge and is beyond the scope of this book because of the huge data crunching that it takes. However, we will limit the scope by limiting the dataset and simplifying the solution.
