As an example
, use the following data to obtain a polynomial fitting with p =
2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

3.20 562.30
4.50 1969.11

Because we will be using the same x-y data for fitting polynomials of different
orders, it is advisable to save the lists of data values x and y into variables xx
and yy, respectively. This way, we will not have to type them all over again
in each application of the program POLY. Thus, proceed as follows:
{ 2.3 3.2 4.5 1.65 9.32 1.18 6.24 3.45 9.89 1.22 } ` ‘xx’ K
{179.72 562.30 1969.11 65.87 31220.89 32.81 6731.48 737.41
39248.46 33.45} ` ‘yy’ K
To fit the data to polynomials use the following:
