A new BASIC program uses the least squares method to fit theoretical equations to experimental data. This tool simplifies data analysis for one-parameter and some two-parameter functions on microcomputers.

Area of Science:

Computational Science
Data Analysis

Background:

Accurate fitting of theoretical models to experimental data is crucial in scientific research.
Existing methods may require specialized software or complex programming skills.

Purpose of the Study:

To present a user-friendly BASIC program for fitting theoretical equations to experimental data.
To provide a versatile tool for scientists with microcomputers.

Main Methods:

The program employs the method of least squares for data fitting.
It accommodates one-parameter functions and specific two-parameter functions (with a multiplicative parameter).

Main Results:

The program successfully fits specified classes of theoretical equations to experimental data.
