Error message about iid from RandomizedSearchCV

[Visiting]

Found another sample code for best parameter search from here:
https://www.kaggle.com/code/arindambaner...d/notebook

Got error message about one of the option iid=False, it says "__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'iid' "
Appreciate very much for help to fix the problem, thank you!

Error message comes up when run this piece of code:

random_search = RandomizedSearchCV(clf, param_distributions=param_dist,
                                   n_iter=20, cv=5, iid=False)

Please post entire error trace.

If you look through the sklearn documentation you'll see that "iid" is not a valid parameter name for RandomizedSearchCV. It was depreiciated in version 0.22 and dropped in version 0.24.

The default was False, so I think it was rather silly to include "iid=False". Remove the parameter and it should (might?) work.
