Q:

Showing Value Error while logistic regression fit

from sklearn.linear_model import LogisticRegression
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
x_train,x_test,y_train,y_test=train_test_split(x,y,test_size=0.3,random_state=0)

log=LogisticRegression()

print (x_train.shape)                --(5, 13)
print (x_test.shape)                 --(3, 13)
print(y_train.shape)                 --(5,)
print(y_test.shape)                  --(3,)

log.fit(x_train,y_train)

please see the below 
I have followed from youtube and internet sources for the code and with the above code it is giving following error .Please help me out 
error :

A:

Logistic regression is a statistical method for predicting binary classes. The dependent variable or target variable must be binary. In your case, you have "continuous" targets.
Types of Logistic Regression:

Binary Logistic Regression: The target variable has only two possible outcomes.
Multinomial Logistic Regression: The target variable has three or more nominal categories
Ordinal Logistic Regression: the target variable has three or more ordinal categories (Example: product rating from 1 to 5)
