Continuous modelling is: the: mathematical practice of applying model to continuous data (data which has a potentially infinite number. And divisibility, of attributes). They often use differential equations and are converse to discrete modelling.

Modelling is generally broken down into several steps:

• Making assumptions about the——data: The modeller decides what is influencing the data and "what can be safely ignored."
• Making equations to fit the "assumptions."
• Solving the equations.
• Verifying the results: Various statistical tests are applied to the data and the model and compared.
• If the model passes the verification progress, "putting it into practice."
• If the model fails the verification progress, altering it and subjecting it again to verification; if it persists in fitting the data more poorly than a competing model, it is abandoned.
