Errata: "Optional lab: Cost function"

In the Jupyter notebook for Optional lab: Cost function, there is a grammatical error:

It’s use instructive to view a scenario with a few more data points. This data set includes data points that do not fall on the same line. What does that mean for the cost equation? Can we find w, and b that will give us a cost of 0?

Should be:

Larger Data Set

It’s instructive to view…

Or:

Larger Data Set

It’s useful to view…
