expand(expression1,
[
var
]
)
 also distributes
logarithms and fractional powers regardless
of 
var
. For increased distribution of
logarithms and fractional powers, inequality
constraints might be necessary to guarantee
that some factors are nonnegative.
expand(expression1,
 [
var
]
)
 also distributes
absolute values, 
sign()
, and exponentials,
regardless of 
var
.
Note:
 See also 
tExpand()

ExpReg
list1, list2
[
, [
list3
] [,
 list4, list5
]
]
Calculates the exponential regression and
updates all the system statistics variables.
All the lists must have equal dimensions
except for 
list5
.
list1
 represents xlist.
list2
 represents ylist.
list3
 represents frequency.
list4
 represents category codes.
list5
 represents category include list.
Note:
list1
 through 
list4
 must be a variable
name or c1–c99 (columns in the last data
variable shown in the Data/Matrix Editor).
list5
 does not have to be a variable name and
cannot be c1–c99.
