Hi,I'm looking for a way to to a least-square-fit to a data set (x,y,z). The fit function should be a polynomal like the following:
z(x,y) = \sum_{m,n=0,m+n<=N}^{N} c_{mn} x^m y^n = c_{00} + c_{10} x + c_{01} y + c_{20} x^2 + c_{11} xy + c_{02} y^2 + ...I've been using GSL a lot and know my way around, but I don't know the terminology of least-square-fits, so I'm kindly asking you to name the proper function(s) I should use before I lose myself in the docs ;-)
Thx, Matthias
