PROGRAM EXPLANATION

Algorithm and explanation

  1. Initialize the sample values used to predict a collaborative rating.
  2. Process the data step by step using Collaborative filtering and Weighted average.
  3. Display the result for predict a collaborative rating and compare it with the documented sample output.

This example of predict a collaborative rating processes the sample values in a controlled iteration. It demonstrates Collaborative filtering and Weighted average and prints a deterministic result that can be checked against the sample output.
