NAME

       gbnlreg - Non linear regression

SYNOPSIS

       gbnlreg [options] <function definition>

DESCRIPTION

       Non  linear  least  square  regression.  Read  data in columns (X_1 .. X_N).  The model is
       specified by a function f(x1,x2...) using  variables  names  x1,x2,..,xN  for  the  first,
       second .. N-th column of data. f(x1,x2,...)  are assumed i.i.d.
