How to find recently installed RPMs [LINUX]

* rpm -qa --last will return all installed rpm packages with their installed time. The last installed packages will be at the top of the list.

* rpm -qa --last less is will return all installed packages with their install date. Less allows you to scroll through the results.

* rpm -qa --last tail -n [lines] will return the last 5 packages. Replace [line] with any number you want, in my case 5 for file lines.

[root@testbox root]# rpm -qa --last tail -n 5termcap-11.0.1-17.1 Tue 09 May 2006 03:02:53 PM MYTsetup-2.5.27-1 Tue 09 May 2006 03:02:52 PM MYTfilesystem-2.2.1-3 Tue 09 May 2006 03:02:52 PM MYTbasesystem-8.0-2 Tue 09 May 2006 03:02:52 PM MYTredhat-logos-1.1.14.3-1 Tue 09 May 2006 03:02:51 PM MYT

* rpm -qa --last grep [package name] will return the install date for a specific RPM package. In my case the apache web server

Machine Learning

Machine Learning Machine Learning, a subset of AI, uses computer algorithms to analyze data and make intelligent decisions based on what it has learned. Instead of following rules-based algorithms, machine learning builds models to classify and make predictions from data. Let's understand this by exploring a problem we may be able to tackle with Machine Learning. What if we want to determine whether a heart can fail, is this something we can solve with Machine Learning? The answer is, Yes. Let's say we are given data such as beats per minute, body mass index, age, sex, and the result whether the heart has failed or not. With Machine Learning given this dataset, we are able to learn and create a mode...
