Too Long; Didn't Read

Decision Trees (DTs) are probably one of the most useful supervised learning algorithms out there. They require that you have data that is labelled (tagged with one or more labels) so they try to label new data based on that knowledge. DTs are very popular for a variety of reasons, being their interpretability probably their most important advantage. They can be trained very fast and are easy to understand, which opens their possibilities to frontiers far beyond scientific walls.DTs algorithms are perfect to solve classification (where machines sort data into classes, like whether an email is spam or not) and regression problems.
