Explain what about regression?

What do you know already?

Have you got a textbook?

Google?

 

You might as well ask "Please tell me everything about all subjects." Not even a please or thank you?

And stop posting things in "Computer Help" - you are not asking for help with your computer.

Move to Computer Science. (Although mathematics might be better.)

 

OK. Here is an interesting fact about "regression" (assuming you mean the mathematical method fitting data).

Sir Francis Galton (1822 - 1911) noticed that the children of parents with above or below average height tended to be closer to average height. He referred to this phenomenon as "regression towards mediocrity." He then developed mathematical tools to analyse these tendencies. This came to be known as regression analysis.
