Can you give an example of root cause analysis?
Root cause analysis, as the name suggests, is a method used to solve problems by first identifying the root cause of the problem.

Example : If the higher crime rate in a city is directly associated with the higher sales in a red-colored shirt, it means that they are having a positive correlation. However, this does not mean that one causes the other.

Causation can always be tested using A/B testing or hypothesis testing.
