TechnicalRegister
A statistical method for modelling the relationship between an outcome and one or more predictors.
A simple regression showed that footfall, not weather, explained most of the variation in daily takings.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
