Beginner's Guide for time-series forecasting Dimensionless Blog

Time series analysis is the use of statistical methods to analyze time series data and extract meaningful statistics and characteristics of the data. In this blog, we will begin our journey of learning time series forecasting using python. We will be taking a small forecasting problem and try to solve it till the end learning time series forecasting alongside. Time series analysis is the collection of data at specific intervals over a period of time, with the purpose of identifying trends, cycles, and seasonal variances to aid in the forecasting of a future event. Data is any observed outcome that's measurable. Unlike in statistical sampling, in time series analysis, data must be measured over time at consistent intervals to identify patterns that form trends, cycles, and seasonal variances. Measurements at random intervals lose the ability to predict future events.
