Task given to the agent:

TASK: Linear Regression Fitter

Write a program that fits linear regression models to datasets, supporting simple and multiple regression, model evaluation metrics, residual analysis, and prediction on new data.

FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
- Accept a CSV data file as a command-line argument with the target variable specified via --target flag
- Support simple linear regression (one predictor) and multiple linear regression (multiple predictors) selected via --features flag (comma-separated column names; default: all non-target columns)
- Compute regression coefficients (intercept and slopes) using the ordinary least squares (OLS) method via the normal equation or gradient descent (selectable via --method flag)
- Report model evaluation metrics: R-squared, adjusted R-squared, mean squared error (MSE), root mean squared error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), and F-statistic
- Report coefficient details: estimated value, standard error, t-statistic, and p-value for each coefficient
- Perform residual analysis: compute residuals, check for normality (Shapiro-Wilk or similar test), and detect heteroscedasticity
- Support making predictions on new data via --predict flag (path to a CSV file with predictor values)
- Support data normalization/standardization via --normalize flag
- Support train/test split via --split flag (percentage for training, e.g., --split 80 for 80% train)
- Print a comprehensive model summary to console similar to statistical software output
- Save model coefficients and metrics as JSON with --output flag (default: regression_model.json)
- If no input is given, generate a sample dataset with 200 points containing a known linear relationship with noise, fit the model, display coefficients, metrics, residual analysis, and make predictions on 5 new data points
- Handle errors: multicollinearity detection (warn if condition number is high), missing values in data, non-numeric columns, and singular design matrix

Create a complete Java project for a clean Ubuntu 22.04 machine with only JDK 17+ installed. Include:
- Source code
- pom.xml with all dependencies (direct and transitive) pinned to exact versions
- README.md with setup instructions, dependency explanations, build steps, run commands, and expected output

# Linear Regression Fitter (Java - commons-math3 + opencsv)

Fits OLS linear regression models with comprehensive metrics (R-squared, MSE, RMSE), residual analysis, and prediction capabilities.

## Dependencies

- **commons-math3**: Apache Commons Mathematics Library for OLS regression
- **opencsv**: CSV parser for reading data files

## Building

```bash
mvn clean compile
mvn package
```

## Usage

```bash
# Run with synthetic data
java -jar target/linear-regression-1.0.0.jar

# Run with a CSV file (last column is target variable)
java -jar target/linear-regression-1.0.0.jar data.csv
```

## Features

- OLS multiple linear regression via Apache Commons Math3
- CSV data loading with automatic header parsing
- Synthetic data generation for demonstration
- Train/test split for evaluation
- Regression metrics: R-squared, MSE, RMSE
- Residual analysis: mean, std, min, max, median, skewness, kurtosis
- JSON export of model coefficients and metrics
- Prediction examples display
