I was recently working on a paper involving a function N(g, q) for which I have the following values. (This is a true story, by the way.) - q g= 1 g=2 g=3 g=4 2 5 35 215 1645 3 4 7 9 63 91 677 1397 10963 38160 5 9 129 2953 132839

a. For each fixed value of g, we expect N(9,9) to be approximately bqº for some a and b. Using Scipy, make a least-squares calculation to guess reasonable values of a and b. In [ ]:
b. Based on your answer to a, make a guess as to the values that would appear if I added the column q = 7. In [ ]:
