TI-83 Stat Calc

Using a TI-83 I used to use "Stat Calc" to determine a formula for a series of points.


I can now use Python via numpy:

import numpy

x = [0,  1,  2,  3,  4,  5,  6,  7,  8,  9, 10]
y = [1,   6,  17,  34,  57,  86, 121, 162, 209, 262, 321]
coeffs = numpy.polyfit(x,y,deg=2)
print numpy.poly1d(coeffs)
print numpy.polyval(numpy.poly1d(coeffs), 10)
