Dataset Name:  Eckerle4          (Eckerle4.dat)

File Format:   ASCII
               Starting Values   (lines 41 to 43)
               Certified Values  (lines 41 to 48)
               Data              (lines 61 to 95)

Procedure:     Nonlinear Least Squares Regression

Description:   These data are the result of a NIST study involving
               circular interference transmittance.  The response
               variable is transmittance, and the predictor variable
               is wavelength.
