Interactive FAQ
What is linear regression?
Linear regression is a statistical method used to determine the relationship between a dependent variable (Y) and one or more independent variables (X1, X2, …).
How accurate are the predictions?
The accuracy of predictions depends on the quality and quantity of data used in the analysis.
Can I use this calculator for time series data?
Yes, you can use this calculator for time series data by treating time as one of the independent variables.
