# The coefficient of determination (R2) is the proportion of the variation in the dependent 
# variable that is predictable from the independent variable(s).

# It is a statistic used in the context of statistical models whose main purpose is either 
# the prediction of future outcomes or the testing of hypotheses, on the basis of other 
# related information. It provides a measure of how well observed outcomes are replicated 
# by the model, based on the proportion of total variation of outcomes explained by the model.

# The coefficient of determination is a statistical measure of how well the regression 
# predictions approximate the real data points. An R2 of 1 indicates that the regression 
# predictions perfectly fit the data.

# Values of R2 outside the range 0 to 1 occur when the model fits the data worse than the 
# worst possible least-squares predictor (equivalent to a horizontal hyperplane at a 
# height equal to the mean of the observed data). This occurs when a wrong model was chosen,
# or nonsensical constraints were applied by mistake.
