ABOUT FASTPREDICT

Question 1. What can I do with fastPredict.com?

Fancy a forecast of your own? With fastPredict.com you can make predictions, easy and fast.

Q2. What if I have lots of data?

Excellent! When related, you can use the additional information to improve the accuracy of your analysis. Say, if you know precipitation (column B) and temperature (column C), you can improve the forecast accuracy of rainfall (column A). Remember the first column is for the variable that you desire to make a forecast for. In technical terms, that is the dependent variable, and the other columns are for the explanatory variables.

Q3. Do I need to install anything?

Absolutely nothing.

Q4. How do I enter data?

There are two options. You can upload a spreadsheet (text in .csv format) or key in each value yourself. For better experience, we recommend having broadband Internet connection and using a computer instead of a tablet or mobile phone.

Q5. Is fastPredict safe?

The transport layer security (TLS), that fastPredict uses, is the newest protocol that has replaced the secure sockets layer (SSL). Always remember to check the lock sign on the address bar! For further information please check https://www.abetterinternet.org/about/ and https://letsencrypt.org. fastPredict is proud to be an early adopter of this global social movement to make the Internet a safer and more transparent place.

Q6. How about my privacy?

Shhh. Naturally, access privileges are yours only! The random Internet folder created for your session is deleted immediately from the server as you exit. This folder is not only very difficult to locate but also if you forget to exit, servers will auto-close and delete the folder after being idle for a few minutes.

Q7. Where is fastPredict's geographical location?

Operating on highly priced yet nicely run servers on the cloud.

Q8. Who should we thank to for the fastPredict?

Q9. How much does it cost?

Flexible applications are free to use.
