The goal of this section is to give you a taste of how to build some models; as such, the following examples are not meant to be the best possible model, but rather a simple and relatively quick implementation for learning purposes. Once again, the stock_analysis package has a class for this section's task: StockModeler.
Note that to fully understand the statistical elements of this section and modeling in general, we need a solid understanding of statistics; however, the purpose of this discussion is to show how modeling techniques can be applied to financial data without dwelling on the underlying mathematics.
