How to calculate exponential regression?

Exponential regression is a form of regression analysis which is used to model the relationship between an independent variable and a dependent variable by fitting an exponential function to the data. To calculate exponential regression, use software such as Excel or another statistical software package to input the data and calculate the best fit exponential curve. This curve can then be used to make predictions about the relationship between the independent and dependent variables.
