Mean absolute error
Obviously, before you use the model to predict, you want to know how accurate your predictions are. The mean absolute error (MAE) is a good statistic for this. It is the mean difference between your predictions and the true values.
In this exercise you will calculate the MAE for an ARMA(1,1) model fit to the earthquakes time series
numpy has been imported into your environment as np and the earthquakes time series is available for you as earthquake.
