How to use weka for predict results

问题

Im new to weka and I'm confused with the tool. What I needed to do is im having a data set about fruit price and relating attributes and im trying to predict the specific fruit price using the data set. Since I'm new to weka I couldn't figure out how to do this task. Please help me or guide me to a tutorial about how to do predictions and what is the best method or the algorithm to do this task.

Thank You.

If you want to know more about how to save a trained classifier and load the same later on to predict, please refer the following.

With the assumption that you want to use the Weka GUI, you have to go through 2 steps as below:

First using some pre-labelled data train a classifier[use your fruit prices data]. Make sure it is in ARFF format. After training save the model to your disk. More on this can be found here: http://weka.wikispaces.com/Saving+and+loading+models
In the second step, you have use the already trained model[done in step 1]. Precisely you have to load the model file[saved in step 1] and then use the 'supplied test set" option on the "Classifiers" tab. In "supplied test set" option select the un-labelled data. More on this can be found here: http://weka.wikispaces.com/Making+predictions

I would suggest first playing around with the already provided ARFF data with your Weka install [these ARFF files basically sitting under your Weka install directory, In my case it is under: C:\Program Files\Weka-3-7\data].
