Hi,

I have read the non linear fitting tool tutorial but could not understand it well. Is there someone who could just tell me the method with the following simple example

e.g. 

x = [1 2 3 4 5]

y = [ 0.01 0.02 0.04 0.08 0.16 ]

If we do: scatter (x, y) we can see it would give a look of exponential function. 

How can we fit an estimate curve in this graph? I think we need nlintool but how to deal with this data there?
