llsq_test

llsq_test, an Octave code which calls llsq(), which solves the linear least squares (LLS) problem. It finds the "best" straight line to match a set of data points. More precisely, it finds the quantities "a" and "b" defining the straight line y=a*x+b, which minimizes the root-mean-square (RMS) error to the data.
