Regression

Fact

A supervised learning task for predicting exact numbers.

In Plain Words

Regression is like a weight-guessing booth at a fair. It skips “big or small” and says “92 pounds,” then hopes you smile.

It predicts exact numbers. You meet it in house prices, sales forecasts, and weather apps.
