Dataset Name: Rat43 (Rat43.dat)
File Format: ASCII
Starting Values (lines 41 to 44)
Certified Values (lines 41 to 49)
Data (lines 61 to 75)
Procedure: Nonlinear Least Squares Regression
Description: This model and data are an example of fitting
sigmoidal growth curves taken from Ratkowsky (1983).
The response variable is the dry weight of onion bulbs
and tops, and the predictor variable is growing time.
