Abstract
A time series is a sequence of recorded values. These values are usually real numbers recorded at regular intervals, such as yearly, monthly, weekly, daily, and hourly. Data recorded irregularly are often interpolated to form values at regular intervals before the time series is analyzed. We often represent a time series as just a vector of real numbers.
