Abstract

Graphing calculators have become standard equipment in many high school and college math classes. These hand held computers also lend themselves to the analysis of scientific data. The use of multiple linear regression to analyze the IR vibrational spectra data of carbon monoxide and the structural characteristics of amino acids that contribute to beta sheet formation in proteins is demonstrated.
