( [id://3333]=superdoc: print w/replies, xml ) Need Help??

Hi Folks

Does anyone know the above module and what it's inputs mean? The docco is rather terse ...

use Statistics::Regression; # Create regression object my $reg = Statistics::Regression->new( "sample regression", [ "const +", "someX", "someY" ] ); # Add data points $reg->include( 2.0, [ 1.0, 3.0, -1.0 ] ); $reg->include( 1.0, [ 1.0, 5.0, 2.0 ] ); $reg->include( 20.0, [ 1.0, 31.0, 0.0 ] ); $reg->include( 15.0, [ 1.0, 11.0, 2.0 ] );

I was expecting to give a more simple two dimensional input of X and Y values, then get back a vector of Theta values such that...

$predictedY = $Theta[0] + $X * $Theta[1] + $X**2*Theta[2] ... $X**3*T +heta[n];

How can I reconcile my expectations with the multidimensional data points in the example?

Thanks in Advance,
R.

to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
