tl;dr Many different variables affect how the pandemic progresses and it is extremely difficult to identify each one, and precisely measure them. The data we have is surely innacurate, but could be a good proxy for understanding the behaviour of the coronavirus outbreak We developed a statistical model to obtain short-term forecasts of the number of COVID-19 cases We constantly update forecasts and make all results freely available to any country in the world through a web app How many people will get infected tomorrow?

Overview of the Seven Steps The seven steps proposed by Hilton et al. (2019) present an intriguing strategy for initiating a new project involving programming. This approach is concisely summarized in Figure 1. In this discussion, we will elaborate on these steps, drawing upon the work of Hilton et al. (2019). Figure 1: The seven steps (modified from Hilton et al. (2019)) All steps are then described in the sections below.
Introduction Expressions in C++ are fundamental constructs made up of operators, constants, and variables, following the language’s syntactical rules. Every expression is a segment of a code that returns a value. For instance: This example demonstrates the creation of variables to store values: a box for \(x\) and another for \(y\), where \(y\) equals the expression \(x + 13\) (thus, \(y = 23\)). Now, let’s delve into a more complex example:
Introduction When programming in C, a fundamental step is understanding variable assignment. C offers various data types, and here we focus on int, used for integer data. There are two primary methods to define an int variable: Uninitialized Variable: Defined simply as int x;, this approach does not assign an initial value to the variable \(x\) (Figure 1). It’s generally advisable to avoid this since it can lead to bugs if \(x\) remains unassigned throughout the code.
