seriesName
The name of the series which will be displayed on the chart, i.e. its label.
s
A statistical series.
degree
The degree of the polynomial which is fitted to the data set given (i.e. if degree is 2, then a quadratic is fitted).
Fits a polynomial of a given degree to a data set in accordance with the least squares approach and returned the values of the fitted function over the same range of the x-coordinate as the given data set.

Syntax

) As Series
Visual Basic (Usage)Copy Code
Dim seriesName As String
Dim s As Series
Dim degree As Integer
Dim value As Series
 
value = ForecastEngine.TrendLinePolynomial(seriesName, s, degree)
C# 
public static Series TrendLinePolynomial( 
   string seriesName,
   Series s,
   int degree
)

Parameters

seriesName
The name of the series which will be displayed on the chart, i.e. its label.
s
A statistical series.
degree
The degree of the polynomial which is fitted to the data set given (i.e. if degree is 2, then a quadratic is fitted).

Remarks

For example, if we fit a polynomial of degree 2, then we fit the quadratic polynomial (i.e. f(x) = a_0 + a_1 x + a_2 x^2); similarly if we fit a polynomial of degree 3, then we fit the cubic polynomial (i.e. f(x) = a_0 + a_1 x + a_2 x^2 + a_3 x^3).
