I'd like to find the parameters C1, C2, C3, C4, C5, such that the expression "C1*Exp[x/C2] + C3*Exp[x/C4] + C5" best approximates a given function (or, more directly, the distribution of a data series). Any help would be greatly appreciated. (This is like the Poisson distribution, but for two random variables, plus a constant offset... I think.) Thanks, Tobin
