Hey Ashutosh,

Thank you for reaching out.

The version of sklearn used in the course is 0.19. In that version, the parameters of the LinearRegression class were:

- fit_intercept, defaulting to True,

- normalize, defaulting to False,

- copy_X, defaulting to True,

- and n_jobs, defaulting to 1.

These are the values that you see in the lesson.

In subsequent sklearn versions, however, the parameters changed to the following:

- fit_intercept, defaulting to True,

- copy_X, defaulting to True,

- n_jobs, defaulting to None,

- and positive, defaulting to False.

These are the values that you obtain. There is nothing to worry about and it's great that you are using a recent sklearn version.

Kind regards,
