How it works...

In the first step, we generate a simple toy time series. The series consists of values on a line sprinkled with some added noise. Next, we plot our time series in step 2. You can see that it is very close to a straight line and that a sensible prediction for the value of the time series at time  is . To create a forecast of the value of the time series, we consider three different schemes (step 3) for predicting the future values of the time series. In an autoregressive model, the basic idea is that the value of the time series ...
