Week 3 Cost Function

[Pradnya_Amle]

I am getting following Error for Cost FUnction, can anyobidy guide me what am I doing wrong.

TypeError Traceback (most recent call last)

I think the problem is that the argument you are feeding to np.sum is a comma separated list of two inputs. What you really want to do is add the output of those two inner np.dot calls. You don’t need np.sum to do that: just use +. The point of np.sum is that it takes a single vector or array and adds the contents of that input.
