    Hi, Everyone:

    I am confused when I use ncl function : reg_multlin. My ncl file is
    attached.

    The following is the results of reg_multlin:
    ***********************************
    Variable: coef
    Type: float
    Total Size: 20 bytes
                5 values
    Number of Dimensions: 1
    Dimensions and sizes: [5]
    Coordinates:
    Number Of Attributes: 2
      _FillValue : -999
      constant : 0.1775365
    (0) -0.1371275
    (1) 0.08913988
    (2) 0.3832935
    (3) -0.0621316
    (4) 0.2312647
    ***************************

    What is the constant 0.1775365 used for?

    I use other five numbers to calculte the regression line, the results is
    good, but if I add constant 0.1775365 as beta0, the results is not so
    good, so I am confused what the constant 0.1775365 used for?

    Could anyone give me an answer?

    Thanks and regards!

    Li Tao
