Work Around a Curve Fit Error

heelis
I am using the user defined CurveFit function, which works like a charm by the way!!
However, I have some instances of fitting that yield a singular matrix and cause the fitting to fail.
I would like to recover from this error and continue to the next instance of fitting but presently cannot find a way to suppress the message and move on.
Does anyone have similar experience with a fix??

You can create a special variable, "V_FitError" to catch the error. To learn more about that, read in the help: DisplayHelpTopic "V_FitError and V_FitQuitReason"
Your code will look like this (careful- uncompiled and untested pseudocode):
You might wish to look through the list of errors and add handling for them as well.
You might also wish to look at V_FitQuitReason. That variable reports an abnormal termination that isn't considered to be a real error. The distinction may be subtle :)
