I would like first to be sure that you know where to start. Have you an experience with C/C++ ? CVS ? Or are you in a learning process ? In either case, please have a look at the files: http://cvs.arabeyes.org/viewcvs/projects/bayani/src/fit.h http://cvs.arabeyes.org/viewcvs/projects/bayani/src/fit.cc These contain the definition/implementation that Bayani uses for the time being. I suggest that, as an introductory exercise, you write a smallish C++ class that fits linearly a set of data (there is no algorithm to implement, since there is an analytical solution). In a test program (independent from Bayani) you would create an object and fit a small set of data :-) Don't take care of the errors that would be associated with the data [therefore, the fit parameters will be given without errors on them]. I hope this makes sense. Please let me know as soon as possible if this suits you or not, and don't hesitate to ask ! I know that if you are familiar with C++, this would look like a very childish test ;-) It is necessary though, as it will be our basic template for the complicated work that awaits us ;-) Salam and please let me know quickly about your plans :) - -- Youcef R.
