We have studied various forecasting methods throughout the term. Use Reported Pandemic Deaths Data to answer the questions pertaining using MA(2), Exponential Smoothing (alpha = .9) and regression to make forecasts and compute MAE, MSE, and MAPE. The data goes from May 1 to December 2. Also, May 1 starts at day 76 which is fine.

Using a regression model with Times (Days) as the predictor compute Mean Square Error (MSE).
