What is Predictive Analytics?

Predictive analytics is a form of advanced analytics that uses both new and historical data to forecast future activity, behavior, and trends. It involves applying statistical analysis techniques, analytical queries, and automated machine learning algorithms to data sets to create predictive models that place a numerical value — or score — on the likelihood of a particular event happening.

Also, you can create tags and manage them by clicking on the Account tab in the top-right of Graphite Note, and then the Tags drop-down item. You can change its name, its color, and its description or delete it.

What does parsing mean?

In programming, parsing refers to the process of analyzing and interpreting the structure of a sequence of characters or symbols according to a specific grammar or syntax. It is used in our application to understand and extract meaningful information from input data.

During parsing, a parser takes the input, which can be a program's source code or any other form of textual data, and breaks it down into a hierarchical structure that conforms to a predefined set of rules or grammar. This hierarchical structure is typically represented using a data structure such as an abstract syntax tree (AST) or a parse tree.
