How to read this book

An evolving book

This book is not intended to be static. Starting in January 2020, we use this book to teach modeling in the Stanford Data Challenge Lab (DCL) course. The DCL functions as a testing ground for educational materials, as our students give us routine feedback on what they read and do in the course. We use this feedback to constantly improve our materials, including this book. The source for the book is also available on GitHub where we welcome suggestions for improvements.
