Example of own Standard scaling

Let us consider the following vanilla example where we use both Scikit-Learn and write our own function as well. We produce a simple test design matrix with random numbers. Each column could then represent a specific feature whose mean value is subracted.

import sklearn.linear_model as skl
from sklearn.metrics import mean_squared_error
from sklearn.model_selection import  train_test_split
from sklearn.preprocessing import MinMaxScaler, StandardScaler, Normalizer
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
from IPython.display import display
np.random.seed(100)
# setting up a 10 x 5 matrix
rows = 10
cols = 5
X = np.random.randn(rows,cols)
XPandas = pd.DataFrame(X)
display(XPandas)
print(XPandas.mean())
print(XPandas.std())
XPandas = (XPandas -XPandas.mean())
display(XPandas)
#  This option does not include the standard deviation
scaler = StandardScaler(with_std=False)
scaler.fit(X)
Xscaled = scaler.transform(X)
display(XPandas-Xscaled)

Small exercise: perform the standard scaling by including the standard deviation and compare with what Scikit-Learn gives.
