How can this be modified for OR?

To train for OR, you don't need to modify the code above. Instead, you update the training input such that the labels match the result of a logical OR and then train the model just as you would with AND.

import numpy as np
from perceptron import Perceptron

training_inputs = []
training_inputs.append(np.array([1, 1]))
training_inputs.append(np.array([1, 0]))
training_inputs.append(np.array([0, 1]))
training_inputs.append(np.array([0, 0]))

labels = np.array([1, 1, 1, 0])

perceptron = Perceptron(2)
perceptron.train(training_inputs, labels)

inputs = np.array([1, 1])
perceptron.predict(inputs) 
#=> 1

inputs = np.array([0, 1])
perceptron.predict(inputs) 
#=> 1

inputs = np.array([0, 0])
perceptron.predict(inputs) 
#=> 0

This demonstrates the flexibility of the perceptron/machine learning algorithms; they are adaptable general-purpose solvers!
