how to predict a multi variable trendline in python

To predict a multi-variable trendline in Python, you can use a combination of machine learning and regression analysis techniques. First, you will need to import and preprocess the data for analysis. Then, you can use a regression algorithm such as linear regression, polynomial regression, or even support vector regression to fit a trendline to the data points.

Here is an example code snippet using the scikit-learn library to fit a three-variable linear regression model and predict future values:

main.py
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
from sklearn.linear_model import LinearRegression

# import and preprocess data
data = pd.read_csv('data.csv')
X = data[['var1', 'var2', 'var3']]
y = data['target']

# fit the linear regression model
model = LinearRegression().fit(X, y)

# predict future values
X_pred = np.array([[val1, val2, val3]]) # new input values
y_pred = model.predict(X_pred) # predicted target value

# plot the data and trendline
fig, ax = plt.subplots()
ax.scatter(X['var1'], y)
ax.plot(X['var1'], model.predict(X), color='r')
ax.set_xlabel('Variable 1')
ax.set_ylabel('Target')
plt.show()

This code first imports the necessary libraries and data, then fits a linear regression model to the three input variables (var1, var2, and var3) and the target variable. It then uses the model to predict future target values based on new input values (val1, val2, and val3). Finally, it plots the data and the trendline using the matplotlib library.
