p5-Statistics-LineFit

Least squares line fit, weighted or unweighted

The Statistics::LineFit module does weighted or unweighted least-squares line fitting to two-dimensional data (y = a + b * x). (This is also called linear regression.) In addition to the slope and y-intercept, the module can return the square of the correlation coefficient (R squared), the Durbin-Watson statistic, the mean squared error, sigma, the t statistics, the variance of the estimates of the slope and y-intercept, the predicted y values and the residuals of the y values.
