Hello guys,
I´m trying to make a nonlinear regression analysis with a user defined function as " y= a* (1- (x / b)) - c* ( b - x + ( x* ln( x / b)) " (in expression option) and when i perform the quick check, this message appears "y = -- (Undefined variable: LN( X / B)". Is there anything i can do to correct this?
Thank you for your help!
Best regards! |

Dear Aviel,
It worked! Thank you very much! The reason was a parentheses that was missing in the last part of the expression.
Thanks for the time you spent on this.
Best regards

Hi Sara,
When I input your parameters and equation into the fitting function builder, a y value is produced from the quick check. See image below. Could you please reply with a screen shot of your fitting function builder (maybe of all three steps).
Thanks,

Hi Aviel,
Thank you very much for the answer. In this case a only wrote a,b,c in the "parameters", once i want all of them to be fitted. After i changed the initial values, quick test and appears this message. I don´t know if i need to defined something more as it seems the problem is in the ln function.
Thank you once again!
Best

Hi,
The y = -- (undefined variable) message can appear when you don't input all your parameters and variables correctly. I would recommend checking this first. How did you set up your a,b,c variables?
Below is a link to a tutorial on nonlinear fitting curves:
