Dear Mathgroup, I am working on Confidence Intervals for parameters obtained with "nonlinear methods". One thing I am investigating is resampling: I estimate model parameters from my data, bootstrap my initial residuals and combine them with my initial "prediction" to a new, "resampled" dataset to be re-evaluated for new parameters ... Problem: Repeated use of NonlinearFit takes a lot of memory - too much. How can I make NonlinearFit "forget" the old calculations? As far as I have understood the disussions in "The book" and those by Todd Gayley in the CleanSlate Package I have to clear lokal variables in NonlinearFit which are created in its Modules - how can I do that? Suggestions appreciated, greetings from Germany, Peter
