Non-linear curve fitting in Python

Non-linear curve fitting (or non-linear parametric regression)is a fundamental part of the quantitative analysis performed in multiple scientific disciplines. The main idea is that we know (or assume) the model that describes an observed data. For example, it would seem reasonable to assume that the curve below is described by an exponential . . .

Code blocks can use three back ticks (```). Syntax . . .
