If you are doing a ham/spam type classification, then you won't need the alien language. I am almost a total tech novice and I was able to do well with just some bash scripts. Of course the docs will teach you about better ways to train the system, if you are interested in going from 98% correct classification to 99.5% correct.

I am NOT doing ham/spam type classification. I need to define some classifications for specific types of content.
Then substitute ham/spam for whatever those types of content are.
Thanks for the affirmation! It helps when jumping into territory with which I have no previous experience.
