Origin Version (Select Help-->About Origin): 7.5
Operating System: XP
This is my first time to use Origin. I am trying to do a NLCF with 5 parameters. I have a range for each parameter and a step increment that I want the fitting program to use. I have no idea how to specify these in origin. To be more specific about my problem, lets say I have the function:
f(x)=x/p1+p2+p3+p4+p5
p1 should run from 0.1 to 0.9 and I want the step size to be 0.1
p2 should run from 0.1 to 0.2 and I want the step size to be 0.01
etc
Thanks in advance

Thank you. Unfortunately I cannot reduce the number of params (the actualy function is not like the one I posted.. it's very long and complicated). I figured how to specify the limits, but I've been strggling with finding a way to control the step size. Thanks for letting me know about the sw limitation. |

1> Your function has too many parameters. There are many (perhaps an infinite number) combinations of p2,p3,p4,p5 that will satisfy it. You must reduce the function to y = x/p1 + p2.
2> You can set the upper and lower bounds on the Parameter Constraints page (Options> Constraints) as shown below.
3> I don't think you can restrict the step size. The obvious 'linear' constraints rmod(p1,0.1)=0 and int(10*p1)=10*p1 do not work, perhaps because they are not really linear.
