LSQ: Least Squares Subroutine

8-134

Kenneth B. Wibergl Yale University, New Haven,

Connecticut

The subroutine calculates the slope and intercept for the

equation y_i= mx_i+ b by the method of least squares. It

also returns the rms deviation of y, the correlation coefficent

and an estimate of the error in the slope. The calculated

values of y and the differences between the given and

calculated values are also available on return from the subroutine.
