Thank you, I see what you mean now.
I guess I expected to get theta of zero for all the terms but the constant, if there was not enough data to get more than a line fit. I have now updated the code to count the number of unique values and never ask for too many terms. Script now runs happily for all my data. The predictions are still a little wild though, I suspect I may be over-fitting. I don't suppose you saw any undocumented features to add a regularisation term in the code :)
Cheers, R.

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).

are good places to start.
