MinMaxScaler is the OG scaler. what is minmaxscaler in python do? Simple: (x - min) / (max - min).
Pros:

Think of it like adjusting the volume on your music—too loud or too soft isn’t helpful, so u normalize it.
Code snippet:
```python
from sklearn.preprocessing import MinMaxScaler
scaler = MinMaxScaler()
scaled_data = scaler.fit_transform(your_data)
```
Works like a charm!
