Do you really want a macro?
There are four
A much more general problem. Suppose there are k samples, each from R(0,1),
each of size n. Suppose the largest value in sample i is x_i. Then the
product z of the x_i is derived by Rider (JASA, 1955). Yours is the (very)
special case in which n=1 and k=2. The general result, in TeX, is
p(z) = \
Hi,
Does someone know were I can download an EXCEL macro for lin reg?
Besides it calculates the y=bx+a I like the possibility to give Y and
then the macro calculates the x with s.
thanks

Re the chicks data posted by Don Burrill...
A reference is Snedecor and Cochran, Statistical Methods (7th ed.),
Iowa State University Press, Ames, IA, 1980, pp.394-406, which gives
an extensive analysis, including fitting an exponential and orthogonal
polynomials.
There is more on orthogonality
