Dear Maple users
In order to solve a problem in Biology, I have come across four equations with three unknowns, making it overdetermined. The equation system does not have any specific solutions, but since the equations can be considered containing errors, I am looking after the best possible solution - which will minimize the coefficients in the original equation system. My question is twofold:
1. Does there exist a specific Mathematical Theory to handle non-linear equation systems of this type?
2. Which command in Maple can solve it?
