Hi,

The NonlinearRegression-Function (in 4.1) offers the opportunity to 
select the Option ParameterCITable in the Regression Report.

Q: What is meant by _Asymptotic SE_ ? The standard deviation (sigma) of 
the residuals?

Q: and the confidence interval (CI) - is it the estimated value +- 
n-sigma? But to which PDF and which probabilty?

Thanks for help.

Greetings,
