Sample Data Sets for Weighted Least Squares Fitting

Below are several data sets that can be used to check programs for weighted least squares fitting.

Line2a.txt
This linear data set has uniform error bars in the Y axis

Pearson.txt
This linear data set has uncertainties in both X and Y. It was discussed in Matthew Lybanon's paper (Am. J. of Phys., 52, 22, 1984).
