The error between the model and the data is calculated on automatically selected points, which
can be controlled using the 'Select Regression Points' button.
Leave all the weights to 1. Keep Pi constant by un-checking the corresponding checkbox.
Press Run.
During the regression, a dialog shows the evolution of the parameters, and the successive
iterations are shown on the history plot. When the regression completes, or if Cancel is
pressed, the last solution is generated.
