Examples

  • “* It is always possible that a more complicated mathematical function than a hyperbola would give an even closer fit to the data, but this hyperbola is pretty good, so it hardly seems worth bothering to try.”

    Simon & Schuster: THE GREATEST SHOW ON EARTH

  • “You remember, when I introduced the hyperbola, I said it might be possible to find a more complicated mathematical function that would fit the data better.”
