iterations

is the number of iterations to go through; higher values for iterations produce a

better fit, but take longer to calculate. period is an initial guess at which to begin calculation.

Automatic Regression Equation Storage

LinR

,

LnR

,

ExpR

,

PwrR

,

SinR

,

LgstR

,

P2Reg

,

P3Reg

, and

P4Reg

are regression models. Each

regression model has an optional argument,

equationVariable

, for which you can specify an

equation variable, such as

y1

. Upon execution, the regression equation is stored

automatically to the specified equation variable, and the function is selected.

Regardless of whether you specify

equationVariable

, the regression equation always is

stored to the result variable

RegEq

, which is an item on the

STAT

VARS

menu. The

regression equation displays the actual result values.

When you select OneVa or
TwoVa

, the abbreviation

OneVar

or TwoVar is

displayed.

For PwrR and ExpR, the
elements of

xList

and

yList

must be integers

1.

Default for

iterations

is 64.
