#!/usr/bin/python # -*- coding: utf-8 -*- """ ========================================================= Linear Regression Example ========================================================= This example uses the only the first feature of the `diabetes` dataset, in order to illustrate a two-dimensional plot of this regression technique. The straight line can be seen in the plot, showing how linear regression attempts to draw a straight line that will best minimize the residual sum of squares between the observed responses in the dataset, and the responses predicted by the linear approximation. The coefficients, the residual sum of squares and the variance score are also calculated.
