Hello AI World - Your First AI Program
=======================================

This is a simple pattern recognition example that demonstrates core AI concepts:
- Learning from data
- Making predictions
- Understanding patterns

What this program does:
- Learns a simple mathematical pattern (y = 2x)
- Uses that pattern to make predictions
- No complex libraries needed - just pure Python!

Perfect for understanding AI basics before diving into neural networks.
