Linear

(Default.) Fits the data to a straight line,

y

=

mx+b.

Uses a least-squares fit.

m*x+b

Logarithmic

Fits to a logarithmic curve,

y = m\nx + b.

m*LN(X)+b

Exponential

Fits to an exponential curve,

y

=

be"“.

EXP{m*X)*b

Power

Fits to a power curve,

y

=

X''m*b

Quadratic

Fits to a quadratic curve,

y = ax? +bx+c.

Needs at least three points.

a*X''2+b*X+c

Cubic

Fits to a cubic curve,

y = ax^ +b^ +cx+d

Needs at least four points.

a*X''3+b*X''2 + c*X+d

Logistic

Fits to a logistic curve, y =-------- ^V

tt

where

L

is the saturation value for growth.

You can store a positive real value in L, or—

if L=0—let L be computed automatically.
