# Golang Neural Network

Learning about the details of Machine Learning and Neural Networks by implementing one in Golang (also learning about Golang). This project heavily relies on [gonum](https://github.com/gonum/gonum), a data science library for Go, similar to numpy.

## Prerequisites

You will need the following to run this project:

  - [Go](https://golang.org/dl/) programming language

  - MNIST data sets as CSV, available from [this source](https://pjreddie.com/projects/mnist-in-csv/), placed into the `data/` directory

    ```shell

    curl https://pjreddie.com/media/files/mnist_train.csv -o data/mnist_train.csv

    curl https://pjreddie.com/media/files/mnist_test.csv -o data/mnist_test.csv

    ```

## Running the project

Restore the project's dependencies by running:

```shell

go get -u ./...

```

_(I think? I'm not 100% clear on Go package management, and whether you have to explicitly install dependencies)_

Run the main project with:

```shell

go run src/main/main.go

```
