    Thank you so much! Because I'd have thought Regression model analysis was the only method to forecast values! Though, I can guess the difference. But I wish if you can suggest the difference between this function and regression analysis!

    what if a car value is also based on mileage? so you have extra parameter mileage and dataset would be something like 2010 year, value 20k, mileage 0 (brand new car), in year 2011, same car is worth of 15k with 10k mileage, 2012, 8k with 120k miliage and so on and you want to predict the value of the car in 2030 when you decide to sell it with 100k mileage and obviously you know what the cars were selling each year and mileage? can this be done with forecast?
