I'm coming back to Melbourne on 19 June so 19 would be a possibility. 
Its going to be a big week and I'll be in domestic debt so would prefer 
the following week if that was easy for everyone else.

But maybe the topic will be beyond me and you can count me out anyway?

I'm interested in statistical treatment of observations/data 
particularly least squares smoothing and developing formulae to 
predict/reproduce curves to match the smoothed data. I want to insert 
known values and predict the outcomes according to the formula. If that 
makes sense.

Would your tutorial help get me over the learning hump? I don't want to 
become a career statistician just tackle a few datasets.

Thanks

Mike
