Logarithmic and Exponential Curve Fit in Python - Numpy

With numpy function "polyfit":

X,y : data to be fitted

import numpy as np

1. Exponential fit

cf = np.polyfit(X, np.log(y), 1)

will return two coefficients, who will compose the equation:

exp(cf[1])*exp(cf[0]*X)


2. Logarithm fit:

cf = np.polyfit(np.log(X), y, 1)

will return two coefficients, who will compose the equation:

cf[0]*log(X)+cf[1]
