Document the type of a machine-learning task.
Use whether the output is a category or a continuous value.
Which use case is regression?
Regression predicts a continuous value, while classification predicts a discrete category.
Detailed explanation
Object detection handles positions and classes and is not this simple distinction.
A future numeric amount is a regression target.
Unlabeled grouping is clustering.
A fixed class label is classification.

Foundation review
Output type
The form of the required result determines which task and evaluation measures are appropriate.
Task boundary
A category prediction is different from estimating a quantity or discovering groups.
