Re: Gnumeric regression is wrong?

["Andreas J. Guelzow" <aguelzow math concordia ab ca>]

There is definitely something wrong with the regression calculations in 
the data analysis tools. It seems that the standrard error for the 
parameter estimates are switched (and then all the calculations based on 
them seem to be wrong).

I'll try to locate the exact problem.
