seriesName
The name of the series which will be displayed on the chart, i.e. its label.
s
A statistical series.
step
The distance in the x-coordinate between two adjacent extended points. Please note that this also corresponds to the distance in the x-coordinate between the highest and lowest original data point and the first (above or below) additional evaluation point.
forward
The number of additional evaluation points which are evaluated above the x-coordinates of the original given data set.
backward
The number of additional evaluation points which are evaluated below the x-coordinates of the original given data set.
Find the best fit for the function f(x) = a + b * ln(x).

Parameters

seriesName
The name of the series which will be displayed on the chart, i.e. its label.
s
A statistical series.
step
The distance in the x-coordinate between two adjacent extended points. Please note that this also corresponds to the distance in the x-coordinate between the highest and lowest original data point and the first (above or below) additional evaluation point.
forward
The number of additional evaluation points which are evaluated above the x-coordinates of the original given data set.
backward
The number of additional evaluation points which are evaluated below the x-coordinates of the original given data set.

Return Value

A series where the k-th element of the array represents of k-th point (i.e. { x_k, y_k }) of the total set over which the fitted function is evaluated. The total set over which the fitted function is evaluated consists of the `backward' points, original data set points and the `forward' points.

Remark: This methods corresponds in functionality to the method of the same name within Microsoft Excel.
