STATEMENT : Curve fitting using least square method
ALGORITHM :
Input: Taking data points of x and y axis from the user.
Output: Approximate value of x and c in form y=mx+c .
Steps:
1. START.
2. Declaring the float(a,b) and
integer(n,i,x[20],y[20],sumx=0,sumy=0,sumxy=0,sumx2=0[i
nitialised]) variables in the main() function.
3. Ask the user to put the number of data points and storing
it in n and the values of data points of x and y axis in the
arrays x[] and y[] reaspectively.
4. Repeat the steps for i ≤ n , where i is initialised by 0 and is
increasing by +1 with every itteration.
5. Set ,
sumx=sumx +x[i].
sumx2=sumx2 +x[i]*x[i].
sumy=sumy +y[i].
sumxy=sumxy +x[i]*y[i].
[End of loop]
6. Set ,
a=((sumx2*sumy -sumx*sumxy)*1.0/(n*sumx2-
sumx*sumx)*1.0).
b=((n*sumxy-sumx*sumy)*1.0/(n*sumx2-
sumx*sumx)*1.0).
7. print the values of a and b in y=mx+c format.
8. END.
