With the calculator, in RPN mode, you can proceed as follows:
First, within your HOME directory, create a sub-directory to be called MPFIT
(Multiple linear and Polynomial data FITting) , and enter the MPFIT sub-
directory. Within the sub-directory, type this program:
«  X y « X TRAN X * INV X TRAN * y * » »
and store it in a variable called MTREG (MulTiple REGression).
Next, enter the matrices X and b into the stack:
[[1,1.2,3.1,2][1,2.5,3.1,2.5 ][1,3.5,4.5,2.5][1,4,4.5,3][1,6,5,3.5]]
`` (keep an extra copy)
[5.7,8.2,5.0,8.2,9.5] `
Press J@MTREG. The result is: [-2.1649…,–0.7144…,-1.7850…,7.0941…],
i.e.,
y = -2.1649–0.7144⋅x
