Revision 3. </p> <p><strong>What?</strong></p> <ul> <li>It's about forecasting.</li> <li>It's about calculating a linear function.</li> <li><em>Details I found</em>: <a href="http://www.faes.de/Basis/Basis-Statistik/Basis-Statistik-Korrelation-Re/basis-statistik-korrelation-re.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.faes.de/Basis/Basis-Statistik/Basis-Statistik-Korrelation-Re/basis-statistik-korrelation-re.html</a> (in german)</li> </ul> <p>Also I don't know how the formula have been created the practical part was very easy to me. I have verified one example (see code) using Open Office Calc (I've learned: you can display the formula for the trend line as well as the coefficient of correlation - great).</p> <p><strong>Why?</strong></p> <ul> <li>In <a href="http://code.activestate.com/recipes/578111/">recipe 578111</a> I'm printing out current error rate for different training sessions in mental arithmetic.</li> <li>Anyway I would like to be able to given information - approximately - about how many you have improved since you train yourself.</li> </ul> <p><strong>What has changed?</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Revision2</strong>: Didn't compile with Jython 2.5.3b1 because of not supported exception syntax. Now it does work without exception.</li> <li><strong>Revision3</strong>: Test data row for failure not removed.</li> </ul>
