\title{Prediction Function for Fitted Holt-Winters Models}
\description{
  Computes predictions and prediction intervals for models fitted by
  the Holt-Winters method.
}
\usage{
\method{predict}{HoltWinters}(object, n.ahead = 1, prediction.interval = FALSE,
       level = 0.95, ...)
}
\arguments{
  \item{object}{An object of class \code{HoltWinters}.}
  \item{n.ahead}{Number of future periods to predict.}
  \item{prediction.interval}{logical. If \code{TRUE}, the lower and
    upper bounds of the corresponding prediction intervals are computed.}
  \item{level}{Confidence level for the prediction interval.}
  \item{\dots}{arguments passed to or from other methods.}
}
\value{
  A time series of the predicted values. If prediction intervals are
  requested, a multiple time series is returned with columns \code{fit},
  \code{lwr} and \code{upr} for the predicted values and the lower and
  upper bounds respectively.
