Given a predictor data matrix X of size , target variable vector y of size  and a shrinkage factor λ (scalar) (ridge regularization), write the function to compute linear regression model coefficients β  to model the data. The data has n observations, p predictor variables in the X matrix 
The model is defines as:  where sigma is gaussian noise.

Yuvraj, this problem looks interesting, and I was looking forward to learning about ridge regularization. I suggest that you remove the code from the function template: you are giving us the answer! Also, several Cody players have recommended at least four tests to discourage lookup table solutions and other cheats.

The test suite's incorrect: the matrix inversion in the ridge estimator is missing.
