+Added a `requirements.txt` file for Kaggle notebooks.

+You may see warnings when running on Kaggle due to inconsistencies in installed package versions between your environment and Kaggle. If you are using a virtual environment already, install this [kaggle_requirements.txt](https://github.com/gperdrizet/FSA_devops/blob/main/notebooks/unit3/lesson_20/kaggle_requirements.txt):

+```
+pip install --force-reinstall kaggle_requirements.txt

+
+This is working for me with Python 3.12. It contains a slightly newer version of scikit-learn than is found on Kaggle. Update in the Kaggle environment by going to 'Add-ons' -> 'Install Dependencies' and adding:
+
+```
+pip install scikit-learn==1.5.2
