An early diagnosis of BC can greatly improve the prognosis and chance of survival for patients. Thus an accurate identification of malignant tumors is of paramount importance.

In this article I will also go over all the steps needed to make a Data Science project complete in itself, and with the use of machine learning algorithms, ultimately build a model which accurately classifies tumors as Benign or Malignant based on the tumor shape and its geometry. …
