# Regression Analysis

Produces the regression analysis of a data set

To access this command...

Choose Data - Statistics - Regression

For more information on regression analysis, refer to the corresponding Wikipedia article.

### Podaci

Input Range: The reference of the range of the data to analyze.

Results to: The reference of the top left cell of the range where the results will be displayed.

### Grouped By

Select whether the input data has columns or rows layout.

## Output Regression Type

Set the regression type. Three types are available:

- Linear Regression: find a straight line in the form of y = a.x + b, where a is the slope and b is the intercept that best fits the data.

- Logarithmic regression: find a logarithmic curve in the form of y = a.ln(x) + b, where a is the slope, b is the intercept and ln(x) is the natural logarithm of x, that best fits the data.

- Power regression: Find a power curve in the form of y = a.x^b, where a is the coefficient, b is the power that best fits the data.

#### Example

The following table has samples of a physical phenomenon taken in 1 second interval.

| A | B
1 | Time | Measurement
2 | 1 | 2.7
3 | 2 | 4.0
4 | 3 | 4.4
5 | 4 | 7.1
6 | 5 | 4.9
7 | 6 | 3.6
8 | 7 | 4.0
9 | 8 | 0.6
10 | 9 | 1.0
11 | 10 | 4.3

The results of the three types of regression analysis of the measurements in the table above are shown below.
