The idea behind `RandomizedSearchCV` is that it works the same as `GridSearchCV`, but instead of trying all the combinations, it tries a **randomly sampled subset**. 

For example, this `param_grid` will have 100 combinations:
```python
param_grid = {'n_neighbors': [1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, 15, 17, 20, 25],
                         'weights': ['distance', 'uniform'],
                         'p': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]}
```
The `GridSearchCV` would try all of them, which is **time-consuming**. With `RandomizedSearchCV`, you can try only a **randomly chosen subset** of, say, 20 combinations.  It usually leads to a little worse result, but works much faster. 

You can control the number of combinations to be tested using the `n_iter` argument (set to **10** by default). Apart from that, working with it is the same as with `GridSearchCV`.

Machine learning is now used everywhere. Want to learn it yourself? This course is an introduction to the world of Machine learning for you to learn basic concepts, work with Scikit-learn – the most popular library for ML and build your first Machine Learning project.
This course is intended for students with a basic knowledge of Python, Pandas, and Numpy.

Learn the Machine Learning concepts and the ML project workflow.

Preprocessing is probably the most important stage of an ML project. This chapter covers the preprocessing steps needed for almost any dataset.

A pipeline is a neat way to combine all the preprocessing steps as well as a model. Pipelines make it much easier to train and use a model.

Modeling is the most fun stage of an ML project. Let's learn to build, fine-tune and evaluate the model!
