Accuracy of Quadratic Regression
Dear HP Prime User Thread
There seems to be a subtlety with the quadratic regression that I cannot figure out: the HP Prime results for a sample problem are subtly different from those from MS Excel, an on line tool (https://ezcalc.me/quadratic-regression-calculator/) and TI-84 x y 2003 813 2004 941 2005 962 2006 1053 2007 1132 2008 1194 2009 1205 2010 1244 2011 1254 2012 1262 -> Excel, and other tools calculate the quadratic fit as: y = -5.46969697 X^2 + 22010.28788 X -22141315.33 -> HP calculates it is: y = -5.47571307 X^2 + 22034.44253 X -22165560.54 It is close ... but annoyingly different. I played with HOME/CAS settings and set home number format to standard and floating 11 and CAS format to standard 12 to no avail. I am not sure if this is related to floating point accuracy (although I thought that HP Prime has better accuracy than TI-84), or I may be missing a special setting. I am a long time HP28S and HP4G user and HP fan in general and recently purchased my daughter an HP Prime. I would appreciate help/insight into this scenario Thx PS: The linear fit matches the other calculators exactly |
