 ## tip
 
+* FEATURE: [MetricsQL](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/MetricsQL.html): add [range_linear_regression](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/MetricsQL.html#range_linear_regression) function for calculating [simple linear regression](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_linear_regression) over the input time series on the selected time range. This function is useful for predictions and capacity planning. For example, `range_linear_regression(process_resident_memory_bytes)` can predict future memory usage based on the past memory usage.
