Dependent Variables

In Data Science, a dependent variable is a variable that is being studied and measured in an experiment or statistical analysis. It is the outcome or response variable that is affected by changes in the independent variable. The dependent variable is usually plotted on the y-axis of a graph and is used to evaluate the effect of the independent variable on the outcome. In machine learning, the dependent variable is often referred to as the target variable, and it is the variable that the model is trying to predict based on the input features. Understanding the relationship between the dependent and independent variables is crucial in building accurate predictive models.
