"""
Apriori Algorithm is a Association rule mining technique, also known as market basket
analysis, aims to discover interesting relationships or associations among a set of
items in a transactional or relational database.

For example, Apriori Algorithm states: "If a customer buys item A and item B, then they
are likely to buy item C."  This rule suggests a relationship between items A, B, and C,
indicating that customers who purchased A and B are more likely to also purchase item C.
