/// \notebook -nodraw
/// This macro shows several ways to perform a linear least-squares
/// analysis . To keep things simple we fit a straight line to 4
/// data points
/// The first 4 methods use the linear algebra package to find
/// x such that min \f$ (A x - b)^T (A x - b) \f$ where A and b
/// are calculated with the data points and the functional expression :
///
/// 1. Normal equations:
/// Expanding the expression \f$ (A x - b)^T (A x - b) \f$ and taking the
/// derivative wrt x leads to the "Normal Equations":
/// \f$ A^T A x = A^T b \f$ where \f$ A^T A \f$ is a positive definite matrix. Therefore,
/// a Cholesky decomposition scheme can be used to calculate its inverse .
/// This leads to the solution \f$ x = (A^T A)^-1 A^T b \f$ . All this is done in
/// routine NormalEqn . We made it a bit more complicated by giving the
/// data weights .
/// Numerically this is not the best way to proceed because effectively the
/// condition number of \f$ A^T A \f$ is twice as large as that of A, making inversion
/// more difficult
///
/// 2. SVD
/// One can show that solving \f$ A x = b \f$ for x with A of size \f$ (m x n) \f$
/// and \f$ m > n \f$ through a Singular Value Decomposition is equivalent to minimizing
/// \f$ (A x - b)^T (A x - b) \f$ Numerically , this is the most stable method of all 5
///
/// 3. Pseudo Inverse
/// Here we calculate the generalized matrix inverse ("pseudo inverse") by
/// solving \f$ A X = Unit \f$ for matrix \f$ X \f$ through an SVD . The formal expression for
/// is \f$ X = (A^T A)^-1 A^T \f$ . Then we multiply it by \f$ b \f$ .
/// Numerically, not as good as 2 and not as fast . In general it is not a
/// good idea to solve a set of linear equations with a matrix inversion .
///
/// 4. Pseudo Inverse , brute force
/// The pseudo inverse is calculated brute force through a series of matrix
/// manipulations . It shows nicely some operations in the matrix package,
/// but is otherwise a big "no no" .
///
/// 5. Least-squares analysis with Minuit
/// An objective function L is minimized by Minuit, where
/// \f$ L = sum_i { (y - c_0 -c_1 * x / e)^2 } \f$
/// Minuit will calculate numerically the derivative of L wrt c_0 and c_1 .
/// It has not been told that these derivatives are linear in the parameters
/// c_0 and c_1 .
/// For ill-conditioned linear problems it is better to use the fact it is
/// a linear fit as in 2 .
///
/// Another interesting thing is the way we assign data to the vectors and
/// matrices through adoption .
/// This allows data assignment without physically moving bytes around .
