Hey! I'm Brad Cypert.

I wrote a Naive Bayes Classifier in Rust and trained it on Taylor Swift Lyrics which allows us to feed our program a set of lyrics (ideally not from Taylor Swift) and classify those lyrics as more likely to be featured in a song by Country Taylor Swift (circa 1989 album) or more likely to be featured in a song by Pop Taylor Swift (post 1989 album). The classifier features ideas such as Laplace Smoothing, tokenization, reading from files and more. Let's talk through building it!

Ultimately, the team charter is a documented representation of what is important to your team and should be updated as those items change.
