Etymology
Prescriptive comes from the old parts pre- 'before' and scrib- 'to write', the same root as prescribe and script. Think of a doctor who prescribes medicine: a prescriptive model writes down a specific action to take, so prescriptive analytics recommend concrete steps to get the best result.
