A Decision Tree chart that helps determine a course of action or show a statistical probability. The chart is called a decision tree due to its resemblance to the namesake plant, usually outlined as an upright or a horizontal diagram that branches out.&#x20;

The Decision Tree chart is made up of various nodes. It contains three types of nodes: Decision nodes, chance nodes, and outcome nodes. Starting from the Decision node, each ***branch*** of the Decision Tree represents a possible decision, outcome, or reaction. The furthest branches on the tree represent the end results of a certain decision pathway and are called the "leaves".

## **Best Situation to use Decision Tree chart**

* To classify the data based on a condition
* To display continuous nodes as endpoints in a Regression Tree

Some examples where Decision Tree may be used:

* To predict the Customer's action/reaction
* To forecast Stock market movements
