- Here is a program that allows you to fit a set of points to the closest
- polynomial. It also has an imbedded matrix inverter/solver, which I couldn't
- find elsewhere on my ULTRIX system.
-
- Note that solving for a polynomial above about the fifth order can easily
- cause floating point exceptions.
