Least squares example

Hi Folks,

Apologies for the horrendous least squares example in lecture! I chose my model poorly; the model should be linear in the unknown parameters. I've modified the model and posted the modified example under "Least Squares Example" in the Supplementary Materials. I'll also write up how to do the more complicated example I started in class. (You do not need to know this more complicated case for the exam so this one in just for fun!)

Enjoy!
