What are number of epochs?

Imagine you're learning to ride a bike, each time you try, it's like going through an epoch.

An epoch is just one full round of learning for a computer when it’s trying to get better at something. Think of it like practice sessions: every time the computer tries to learn from its mistakes and gets a little smarter, that’s one epoch.

Let's say you're trying to learn how to ride a bike. You pedal, wobble, maybe fall, but then you get up again and try once more. Each time you do that full cycle, fall, get up, pedal, it's like one epoch.

If you keep doing this 10 times, that’s 10 epochs, just like practicing 10 times in a row. The more epochs you have, the better the computer gets at what it's learning, just like how you’ll get better and better at riding your bike with each practice session!

So, the number of epochs is just how many times the computer gets to try and learn, one full go around, before it’s done. Imagine you're learning to ride a bike, each time you try, it's like going through an epoch.
