For this challenge, you will build the same Polynomial Regression of degree 2 as in the previous challenge. However, you will need to split the set into a training set and a test set to calculate RMSE for both those sets. This is required to judge whether the model overfits/underfits or not.  
Here is the reminder of the `train_test_split()` function you'll want to use.

And also reminder of the `mean_squared_error()` function with `np.sqrt()` needed to calculate RMSE:
```python
rmse = np.sqrt(mean_squared_error(y_true, y_predicted))
```

When you complete the task, you will notice that the test RMSE is even lower than the training RMSE. Usually, models do not show better results on unseen instances. Here, the difference is tiny and caused by chance. Our dataset is relatively small, and while splitting, the test set received a bit better(easier to predict) data points.

Linear Regression is a crucial concept in predictive analytics. It is widely used by data scientists, data analytics, and statisticians as it is easy to build and interpret but powerful enough for many tasks.

Let's start with the simplest Linear Regression model! You will learn the idea behind Linear Regression and how to make predictions in Python.

Most real-world prediction tasks involve more than one feature. You will learn how to handle Linear Regression with multiple features.

A straight line does not always describe the data well. Let's learn how to build a more complex model for prediction! That's what the Polynomial Regression is suited for.

Now that you know how to build many Linear Regression models, you need a way to choose the best one. This is achievable using metrics. This section explains the most used ones and the difficulties you can face using them.
