Curve fitting is a class of numerical methods which seeks to explain the behavior of a series of discrete points using a single continuous function. Two main categories of curve fitting are [[regression]], which approximates the behavior of a set of data points, and [[interpolation]], which creates a curve which goes through every data point in the set.
