LOGEST() is an array function that calculates the exponential curve that fits the data values and returns an array of values that describes the curve.
Description
- If 'Y' is dependent variable, 'X' is independent variable, 'm' is a constant base for X value and 'b' is constant (Y-intercept),
then equation for curve is -
Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle Y= b*m^X}
- For multiple ranges of X-values,

- Argument values Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle X} and Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle Y} should be numeric, else Calci displays an error message.
- The length of array of X values should be equal to length of array of Y values, else Calci displays an error message.
- Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle C} is a logical value that decides whether to make constant 'b' equal to 1.
- If Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle C} = TRUE or omitted, 'b' is calculated normally. If Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle C} = FALSE, 'b' is made equal to 1.
- Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle stats} is a logical value that decides whether to display additional regression statistics.
- If Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle stats} = TRUE, calci returns additional regresstion statistics. If Failed to parse (MathML with SVG or PNG fallback (recommended for modern browsers and accessibility tools): Invalid response ("Math extension cannot connect to Restbase.") from server "https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/":): {\displaystyle stats} = FALSE or omitted, Calci returns the values of 'm coefficients' and the constant 'b'.
- When there is only one independent X variable, Y intercept (b) can be calculated using following formulas -
Failed to parse (Conversion error. Server ("https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_") reported: "Cannot get mml. Server problem."): {\displaystyle Yintercept(b)=INDEX(LOGEST(Y,X),2)}
- The additional regression is displayed in the following format where each statistic value is described as below-
