Hi, I would suggest a task for this and a new branch. It should only take a few days to implement. Adding it to the GUI would also be quite easy, we just need a selection box element to select between the 2 different equation types. I have already implemented the following for this type of analysis:
- the relax_fit.select_model() user function. - all of the specific code for handling the additional 'iinf' parameter. - the C code maths functions in maths_fns/relax_fit.c The only thing missing is the code in math_fns/exponential.c as well as a switch in maths_fns/relax_fit.c to select between the two different curves (there would be other ways of implementing this though).
