Note
• The r and
n
values produced by this example are for logarithmic regression because
we fi rst displayed the logarithmic regression calculation screen in step 1 before using
the commands to calculate the values were wanted. If you do not display a particular
regression calculation result screen fi rst, the values produced by the commands are for
linear regression by default.
• For details about statistical calculation commands, see “REG Mode Statistical Command
Reference” (page 80).
