Irregularity: Random fluctuations or noise in the data.
Examples: Trend in stock prices, seasonality in retail sales, cyclicality in econo...
Handling missing values is crucial in data analysis. Various techniques like imputation, deletion, or prediction can be used.

Consider using predictive modeling to estimate missing values based on other variables.
Delete rows or columns with a high percentage of missing values if they cannot be accurately imputed.
Use advanced techniques like...
Linear regression assumptions include linearity, independence, homoscedasticity, and normality.
Linearity: The relationship between the independent and dependent variables is linear.
Independence: The residuals are independent of each other.
Homoscedasticity: The variance of the residuals is constant across all levels of the independent variables.
Normality: The residuals are normally distributed.
Example: If we are pr...
Tuple is immutable and fixed in size, while list is mutable and can change in size.
Tuple is created using parentheses, while list is created using square brackets.
Tuple elements can be of different data types, while list elements are usually of the same data type.
Tuple is faster than list for iteration and accessing elements.
Example: tuple = (1, 'a', True), list = [1, 2, 3]
Multicollinearity is a phenomenon in which two or more predictor variables in a regression model are highly correlated.
Multicollinearity can lead to unstable estimates of the coefficients and make it difficult to determine the effect of each predictor variable on the outcome.
One way to tackle multicollinearity is to identify the highly correlated variables and consider removing one of them from the model.

Use Interquartile Range (IQR) to identify outliers by determining data points that fall below Q1 - 1.5 * IQR or above Q3 + 1.5 * IQR.
Visualize the data using box plots and identify points...
