ok. sorry for being blurry. I have x,y data, that probably fits a asymptotic curve (asymptote at N). now I want to fit a curve onto the data, that gives me the N. therefore I thought to fit an e-function, namely N(1-e^(y/x)) onto the data and get the N from the fitted curves' equation. in the

hello, I want to fit a curve to a simple x,y dataset - my problem is, that I want to fit it for the following term: n(1-e^x/y) - so I get the n constant for my data... can anyone help/comment on that? cheers, gregor __ R-help@r-project.org mailing
