I have the following set of data:
x=[0 .1579 .3158 .4737 .6316 .7895 .9474 1.1053 1.2632 1.4211 1.5789 1.7368 1.8947 2.0526 2.2105 2.3684 2.5263 2.6842 2.8421 3]';
fx=[-.3637 .3164 -1.1263 -1.0672 .1076 1.8249 -.1899 1.3484 1.2583 3.2179 1.7378 3.6954 5.1611 6.7646 8.3733 8.1898 7.9968 10.2402 11.5248 16.6505]';
I have to fit a curve to this data, without using matlabs curve fitting toolbox. What are the best built in matlab functions to fit data like this?

There are three other functions you can use to fit nonlinear data: nlinfit (Statistics Toolbox), lsqcurvefit (Optimization Toolbox), and fminsearch (built-in MATLAB function).
Do you have a model you want to fit? (It looks like a noisy exponential function, but the process that created it dictates the model you fit to it.)
