Chapter 10. Predicting Continuous Target Variables with Regression Analysis

[krishnamohan-seelam]

In the section Dealing with nonlinear relationships using random forests
Unfortunately, there is now a universal approach for dealing with non-randomness in residual plots, and it requires experimentation

I am sort of confused with the above line in the book ,is it "no" instead of now .

Instead of "Unfortunately, there is now a universal approach for dealing with non-randomness in residual plots, and it requires experimentation."

I believe you want: "Unfortunately, there is not a universal approach for dealing with non-randomness in residual plots, and it requires experimentation."

Sorry about the confusion, and @dwoodlock is correct, it should be "not" in this context, thanks! I just added it to the errata.
