In our little universe, since we have the data for everyone hence we have easily created a
rule to predict the next diabetic patient. However, in the real world applications, we do not
store the complete dataset of all the patients, and therefore we can borrow the actual power of
ML to find a viable solution for our problems. ML provides prediction even if our dataset does
not contain all the possible samples. For instance, if in our above example, we delete the last
