Outlier Analysis of Residuals by Excel

Analysis of Residual Outliers can be done not only by Regression Analysis , but also by any supervised learning method in which the target variable is quantitative data, and the results differ depending on the method.

If you try to get the residuals in R, Python, etc., it's not a standard output, so it's a bit of a hassle.

On the other hand, although it is limited to regression analysis, if you want to obtain the residual of regression analysis, you can easily do it with Excel.
