-The Olympic Games' motto consists of three Latin words: *Citius, Altius, Fortius*. These words mean *Faster, Higher, Stronger*. Since this motto was established, the variety of games has grown enormously to include shooting, sailing, and team sports. We'd like to explore the role that basic physical features still play in predicting who wins a medal at one of the most prestigious sporting events on the planet. To this end, we'll explore rhythmic gymnastics: a modern addition to the games that combines dance, gymnastics, and calisthenics. One might expect that basic characteristics of age, height, and weight play only a limited role, given the need for agility, flexibility, dexterity, and coordination. Let's use some more advanced machine learning models to see how critical these basic factors really are.
