Current documentation for "fit" says Note that if you don't pecify a `using` option at all, no z standard deviations are read from the datafile even if it does have a third column, so you'll always get unit weights. But from looking at the code I think this is not true. If there is no using spec then the number of independent variables is always two less than the number of columns in the input file, and the final input column is indeed interpreted as a standard deviation on z. The comment in the fit.c source code is also wrong, as it claims that the standard deviation is used only if there is an explicit using spec. Have I misread this? Ethan |
