Regression Workbench
Fit, test, bootstrap. This multi-solver chains 4 solvers into a single guided workflow — run each step in order and carry the result forward.

Ordinary least squares finds the line that minimizes the sum of squared vertical residuals (the gray drop-lines). R² measures the fraction of variance the line explains — 1 is perfect, 0 is useless. Add noise or remove points to watch the fit and R² degrade.

A hypothesis test asks whether a sample mean is far enough from the null value to be surprising by chance alone. The test statistic z measures that distance in standard errors; if it falls in the red rejection region (p below 0.05) we reject the null. Larger samples shrink the standard error and sharpen the test.

A confidence interval is often misread. It does not mean the true value has a 95% chance of being in one interval — it means that if you repeated the experiment many times, about 95% of the intervals would contain the true mean. The red intervals here are the unlucky ones that miss it.

The bootstrap estimates uncertainty by resampling your data with replacement thousands of times and recomputing the statistic each time. The spread of those bootstrap means gives a confidence interval — no formula or normality assumption required. Powerful when the math is intractable.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the Regression Workbench multi-solver?
- Regression Workbench is a guided workflow that chains 4 individual PolySim solvers into one end-to-end analysis, piping each result into the next step.
- Is it free to use?
- Yes. Every step runs entirely in your browser using real numerics — no install, no account, no cloud cost. Custom or private solver packs are available as a paid service.
