Greetings people, I hope you are all fine.
It is a request to explain what does this phrase mean in python:
plt.style.use(’./deeplearning.mplstyle’)

Hey @Talha1234,
Matplotlib offers custom styling, which you can define by yourself for the plots that you create using matplotlib. Hence, the DeepLearning.AI team has defined some custom styling for the entire MLS Specialization, which you can find in the file deeplearning.mplstyle. You can locate this file in the Lab Files. I hope this helps.

Regards,
Elemento

hi @Talha1234 this line is just for setting the style of matplotlib plots.

there are many styles we can choose from in matplotlib, each style has its unique colours and backgrounds. this is not that important we can always use the default style.
