Dataset Name:  Misra1b           (Misra1b.dat)

File Format:   ASCII
               Starting Values   (lines 41 to 42)
               Certified Values  (lines 41 to 47)
               Data              (lines 61 to 74)

Procedure:     Nonlinear Least Squares Regression

Description:   These data are the result of a NIST study regarding
               dental research in monomolecular adsorption.  The
               response variable is volume, and the predictor
               variable is pressure.
