Hi I have a problem with specifying constrants and initial values for FindFit, when the parameters are defined as a table. This is my model and the parameters (params) model = a*(.5 + Sum[b[i]*Cos[2.00000*i*t*Pi/180], {i, 1, 500}]); params = Join[{a}, Table[b[i], {i, 1, 500}]] B[i_] = FindFit[data, model, params, t, MaxIterations -> 1000, AccuracyGoal -> 4] However I would like to constrain the b[i] parameters to be less than one. Also if possible , that b[n+1]<=b[n]. What should the syntax be for this? The number of parameters is too large to specify the constrains individually. Thanks, VM
