Problem code: (negligible code)
import numpy as np
from sklearn.feature_selection import SelectKBest, f_classif
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
predictors = ["Pclass", "Sex", "Age", "SibSp", "Parch", "Fare", "Embarked", "FamilySize", "Title", "NameLength"]
# Perform feature selection
selector = SelectKBest(f_classif, k=5)
selector.fit(titanic[predictors], titanic["Survived"])
# Get the raw p-values for each feature, and transform from p-values into scores
scores = -np.log10(selector.pvalues_)
# Plot the scores. See how "Pclass", "Sex", "Title", and "Fare" are the best?
plt.bar(range(len(predictors)), scores)
plt.xticks(range(len(predictors)), predictors, rotation='vertical')
plt.show()
# Pick only the four best features.
predictors = ["Pclass", "Sex", "Fare", "Title"]
alg = RandomForestClassifier(random_state=1, n_estimators=50, min_samples_split=8, min_samples_leaf=4)

Solution:
Add % Matplotlib inline
to the code header
import pandas #ipython notebook
titanic = pandas.read_csv("titanic_train.csv")
titanic.head(5)
#print (titanic.describe())
%matplotlib inline
