Hi @TheHollidayInn,
thanks, yes, it is correct, Logistic Regression is very often used for classification, but not only, which we would like to leave it in this category.
Wikipedia explains it best:
The logistic regression model itself simply models probability of output in terms of input and does not perform statistical classification (it is not a classifier), though it can be used to make a classifier, for instance by choosing a cutoff value and classifying inputs with probability greater than the cutoff as one class, below the cutoff as the other; this is a common way to make a binary classifier.

Hey! I noticed you put logistic regression under regression. Despite its name, Logistic Regression is actually used for classification.
