HOW DO GOU EVEN MAKE YOUR ART LOOK LIKE SOFT COOKIES WITH LOTS OF CHOCOLATE CHIPS,,,, HOW??????¿??

(btw i left yir server becuaz i realized your server waz 16+,, but il be bac on my birthday!!! im turning 16 on january 19!!!((

(ty for respecting the rules and my boundaries! i generally keep all my socials 16+ for my own comfort and im glad you can understand <3) but awa nonetheless thankyou for the compliments! for anyone curious about how i create the soft look in my art i think theres a few things that contribute to it; - i rarely use fully opaque lineart, i draw all my lines using a transparency/pressue brush and i often use a thicker linestyle than others too, i think this helps lend itself to line weight and depth but also helps accentuate softer areas where the lines are really light and round! - i use a soft-edged brush for shading, i turn the hardness down to pretty much 0% and paint soft shapes and gradients to map out the general lighting with blend modes - i ALSO use a soft-edged brush for rendering-- after laying out the lights and darks i go in with a smaller but still soft brush to add details on a sepearate layer above the lineart, this can often result in me sometimes overlapping the lines a little and creating that fluffy look! i think these things are maybe subtle but they help a lot to generally reduce hard edges in the piece and reduce line intensity- lineart is of course important to a piece but i dont treat it as the focus, its more of a guide to the edges and shadows more than anything, if that makes sense :3

feel like different material could maybe elevate my linestyle stuff but it already takes foreeeeever and im worried something slower would render it stale. like stagnant water

Resultados e Análise Forense

1. Origem do Disparo

Distância estimada: 42 metros do ponto de impacto (porta do carro).

Ângulo de disparo: 3,2° acima da horizontal.

Fatores críticos:

Vento lateral (2,7 m/s) causou desvio de 0,8 m na trajetória.

A altura do impacto (1,05 m) foi consistente com o vídeo de segurança.

2. Energia Cinética Remanescente

Antes do impacto: ( E_k = 459 \ \text{J} ).

Após penetração: ( E_k = 321 \ \text{J} ) (perda de 30%).

Letalidade: A energia final é 4× maior que o limiar letal (80 J), indicando alto potencial de dano interno.

3. Margem de Erro

Incerteza no ângulo (±2°): Altera a distância de impacto em até ±1,5 m.

Incerteza na velocidade (±5 m/s): Altera a energia final em ±45 J.

Visualização 3D da Trajetória

fig = plt.figure(figsize=(12, 8)) ax = fig.add_subplot(111, projection='3d') z = np.zeros(len(x_sim)) # Eixo lateral (vento) ax.plot(x_sim, z, y_sim, label="Trajetória 3D") ax.scatter(42, 0, 1.05, color='red', s=100, label="Impacto na porta") ax.set_xlabel("Distância (m)") ax.set_ylabel("Desvio lateral (m)") ax.set_zlabel("Altura (m)") plt.title("Trajetória 3D com Efeito do Vento") plt.legend() plt.show()

Conclusão Técnica

Origem do disparo: O atirador posicionou-se estrategicamente a 42 metros do veículo, em área com visão clara do caixa eletrônico.

Letalidade: A energia remanescente (321 J) explica o ferimento não fatal apenas por desvio pós-impacto, possivelmente tangencial ao tórax.

Evidências:

Buscar cartuchos em telhados na direção leste do local.

Verificar câmeras em ruas laterais para identificar fuga.

Premeditação: O disparo foi calculado, sugerindo conhecimento prévio do hábito da vítima.

Conclusions:

I was looking at the questions, how often Brank beer in the last 12 Months?

We can see that the following variables are the most important variables to be able to answer the questions.

S2BQ1A20:EVER HAVE JOB OR SCHOOL TROUBLES BECAUSE OF DRINKING

S2AQ1:DRANK AT LEAST 1 ALCOHOLIC DRINK IN LIFE

S2CQ1:EVER SOUGHT HELP BECAUSE OF DRINKING

All the important variables are related to drinking. The Root squared for both the training and the test data is very small and very similar which means the training data set wasn't overfitted and not too biased.

30% was the training set and 70% was the test set, each set had 150 random states. The graph are showing 10 lasso regression coefficients

How to Build Data Visualizations with Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Plotly

How to Build Data Visualizations with Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Plotly Data visualization is a crucial step in the data analysis process. 

It enables us to uncover patterns, understand trends, and communicate insights effectively. 

Python offers powerful libraries like Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Plotly that simplify the process of creating visualizations. 

In this blog, we’ll explore how to use these libraries to create impactful charts and graphs. 

1. Matplotlib:

 The Foundation of Visualization in Python Matplotlib is one of the oldest and most widely used libraries for creating static, animated, and interactive visualizations in Python. 

While it requires more effort to customize compared to other libraries, its flexibility makes it an indispensable tool.

Key Features: Highly customizable for static plots Extensive support for a variety of chart types Integration with other libraries like Pandas Example: Creating a Simple Line Plot import matplotlib.

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Sample data years = [2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2020] values = [25, 34, 30, 35, 40, 50]

# Creating the plot plt.figure(figsize=(8, 5)) plt.plot(years, values, marker=’o’, linestyle=’-’, color=’b’, label=’Values Over Time’)

# Adding labels and title plt.xlabel(‘Year’) plt.ylabel(‘Value’) plt.title(‘Line Plot Example’) plt.legend() plt.grid(True)

# Show plot plt.show()

2. Seaborn:

 Simplifying Statistical Visualization Seaborn is built on top of Matplotlib and provides an easier and more aesthetically pleasing way to create complex visualizations. 

It’s ideal for statistical data visualization and integrates seamlessly with Pandas. 

Key Features:

 Beautiful default styles and color palettes Built-in support for data frames Specialized plots like heatmaps and pair plots 

Example:

 Creating a Heatmap

import seaborn as sns import numpy as np import pandas as pd

# Sample data np.random.seed(0) data = np.random.rand(10, 12) columns = [f’Month {i+1}’ for i in range(12)] index = [f’Year {i+1}’ for i in range(10)] heatmap_data = pd.DataFrame(data, columns=columns, index=index)

# Creating the heatmap plt.figure(figsize=(12, 8)) sns.heatmap(heatmap_data, annot=True, fmt=”.2f”, cmap=”coolwarm”)

plt.title(‘Heatmap Example’) plt.show()

3. Plotly: 

Interactive and Dynamic Visualizations Plotly is a library for creating interactive visualizations that can be shared online or embedded in web applications. 

It’s especially popular for dashboards and interactive reports. Key Features: Interactive plots by default Support for 3D and geo-spatial visualizations Integration with web technologies like Dash 

Example: 

Creating an Interactive Scatter Plot

import plotly.express as px

# Sample data data = {  ‘Year’: [2010, 2012, 2014, 2016, 2018, 2020],  ‘Value’: [25, 34, 30, 35, 40, 50] }

# Creating a scatter plot df = pd.DataFrame(data) fig = px.scatter(df, x=’Year’, y=’Value’, title=’Interactive Scatter Plot Example’, size=’Value’, color=’Value’)

fig.show()

Conclusion 

Matplotlib, Seaborn, and Plotly each have their strengths, and the choice of library depends on the specific requirements of your project. 

Matplotlib is best for detailed and static visualizations, Seaborn is ideal for statistical and aesthetically pleasing plots, and Plotly is unmatched in creating interactive visualizations.

Multiple Regression model

To successfully complete the assignment on testing a multiple regression model, you'll need to conduct a comprehensive analysis using Python, summarize your findings in a blog entry, and include necessary regression diagnostic plots.

Here’s a structured example to guide you through the process:

### Example Code

```pythonimport pandas as pdimport numpy as npimport statsmodels.api as smimport matplotlib.pyplot as pltimport seaborn as snsfrom statsmodels.graphics.gofplots import qqplotfrom statsmodels.stats.outliers_influence import OLSInfluence# Sample data creation (replace with your actual dataset loading)np.random.seed(0)n = 100depression = np.random.choice(['Yes', 'No'], size=n)age = np.random.randint(18, 65, size=n)nicotine_symptoms = np.random.randint(0, 20, size=n) + (depression == 'Yes') * 10 + age * 0.5 # More symptoms with depression and agedata = { 'MajorDepression': depression, 'Age': age, 'NicotineDependenceSymptoms': nicotine_symptoms}df = pd.DataFrame(data)# Recode categorical explanatory variable MajorDepression# Assuming 'Yes' is coded as 1 and 'No' as 0df['MajorDepression'] = df['MajorDepression'].map({'Yes': 1, 'No': 0})# Multiple regression modelX = df[['MajorDepression', 'Age']]X = sm.add_constant(X) # Add intercepty = df['NicotineDependenceSymptoms']model = sm.OLS(y, X).fit()# Print regression results summaryprint(model.summary())# Regression diagnostic plots# Q-Q plotresiduals = model.residfig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(8, 5))qqplot(residuals, line='s', ax=ax)ax.set_title('Q-Q Plot of Residuals')plt.show()# Standardized residuals plotinfluence = OLSInfluence(model)std_residuals = influence.resid_studentized_internalplt.figure(figsize=(8, 5))plt.scatter(model.predict(), std_residuals, alpha=0.8)plt.axhline(y=0, color='r', linestyle='-', linewidth=1)plt.title('Standardized Residuals vs. Fitted Values')plt.xlabel('Fitted values')plt.ylabel('Standardized Residuals')plt.grid(True)plt.show()# Leverage plotfig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(8, 5))sm.graphics.plot_leverage_resid2(model, ax=ax)ax.set_title('Leverage-Residuals Plot')plt.show()# Blog entry summarysummary = """### Summary of Multiple Regression Analysis1. **Association between Explanatory Variables and Response Variable:** The results of the multiple regression analysis revealed significant associations: - Major Depression (Beta = {:.2f}, p = {:.4f}): Significant and positive association with Nicotine Dependence Symptoms. - Age (Beta = {:.2f}, p = {:.4f}): Older participants reported a greater number of Nicotine Dependence Symptoms.2. **Hypothesis Testing:** The results supported the hypothesis that Major Depression is positively associated with Nicotine Dependence Symptoms.3. **Confounding Variables:** Age was identified as a potential confounding variable.

### Explanation:

1. **Sample Data Creation**: Simulates a dataset with `MajorDepression` as a categorical explanatory variable, `Age` as a quantitative explanatory variable, and `NicotineDependenceSymptoms` as the response variable.

2. **Multiple Regression Model**: - Constructs an Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression model using `sm.OLS` from the statsmodels library. - Adds an intercept to the model using `sm.add_constant`. - Fits the model to predict `NicotineDependenceSymptoms` using `MajorDepression` and `Age` as predictors.

3. **Regression Diagnostic Plots**: - Q-Q Plot: Checks the normality assumption of residuals. - Standardized Residuals vs. Fitted Values: Examines homoscedasticity and identifies outliers. - Leverage-Residuals Plot: Detects influential observations that may affect model fit.

4. **Blog Entry Summary**: Provides a structured summary including results of regression analysis, hypothesis testing, discussion on confounding variables, and inclusion of regression diagnostic plots.

### Blog Entry SubmissionEnsure to adapt the code and summary based on your specific dataset and analysis. Upload the regression diagnostic plots as images to your blog entry and provide the URL to your completed assignment. This example should help you effectively complete your Coursera assignment on testing a multiple regression model.
