Abstract
This paper describes a computer program that finds a function which closely approximates experimental data using the least-squares method. The program finds parameters of the function as well as their corresponding uncertainties. It also has a subroutine for graphical presentation of the input data and the function. The program is used for educational purposes at undergraduate level for students who are learning least-squares fitting, how to solve systems of linear equations and about computer calculation errors.
