I am currently working on a project. In this project I have set of data which follows particular algorithm. I have to find the pattern.

First column is the serial number. Next 3 columns are the input which will be given. Next 2 are the output of the algorithm.

So basically

I have 3 variables x, y, z (2nd, 3rd, 4th column of above data)

And 

y1 = f1(x, y, z)

y2 = f2(x, y, z)

y1 is 5th column of above data

y2 is 6th column of above data

I have above data. Now I need to find function f1 and f2.

What procedure should I follow? What steps must be taken?

EDIT 1 by Krishna Kant Sharma

I posted this question to not to ask for the answering algorithm. I just asked for the steps necessary to take, to solve these kinds of problem, when we have alphabets in variables too. This is the first time, in my experience, some small portion of stackoverflow community have acted like closed minded people. Whats the whole point of stackoverflow? We are here to help each other understand and resolve problems. To lend a helping hand when some of us need it. So why dont we stop beating around some technical pureness (like alphabets are not alphabetical characters), and solve the main problem.

    Sorry, but I think what you are asking is impossible (from a computational point of view).

    The system this data comes from could be doing, say,

    SELECT Y1, Y2 FROM my_secret_data WHERE Col1 = x AND Col2 = Y and Col3 = Z;

    Where my_secret_data contains values that are not computationally derived.

    So unless you had the underlying table, you could never find an algorithm that solves it (unless you had every possible combination of inputs and outputs – which would then mean reconstructing the entire table)

    Outside computation, all I think you can do is look for patterns, and try to find out what the input / output values represent, and see where that takes you.

    Edit:

    All is not lost in certain situations; things would be different if the inputs, outputs and any functions the algorithm uses were continuous(given the inputs are alphanumeric this does not look the case here)

    If they were, you could (probably) find an algorithm via interpolating (perhaps a neural network), but under these circumstances, given the values, I think you would need a lot more sample data.
