best fit
  بهترین سز   
behtarin saz

Fr.: meilleur ajustement   

In a scatter plot, a mathematical line or curve that passes as near to as many of the data points as possible.

Best, M.E., from O.E. betst, akin toi O.E. bot "remedy." Fit, from M.E. fitten "to marchal troops," from or akin to M.Dutch vitten "to be suitable."

Behtarin supperlative of beh "good, fine" (Mid.Pers. veh "better, good," O.Pers. vahav-, vahu-, Av. vah-, vohu- "good," cf. Skt. vasu- "good," Hittite wasu-, Gaulish vesus "good") + saz, from sazidan "to be fit, proper," from Mid.Pers. saz, sazistan "to be fitting, proper."

  سز ِ خم، سزکرد ِ ~   
saz-e xam, sazkard-e ~

Fr.: ajustement de courbe   

Construction of mathematical functions whose graphs are curves that "best" approximate a given collection of data points.

curve; → fitting.

fit

1) saz kardan; 2) saz

Fr.: 1) ajuster; 2) ajustement   

1) (v.) To pass a mathematical line or curve through data points.
2) (n.) The act of fitting.

From M.E. fitten; akin to M.Du. vitten "to befit."

Saz, from sazidan "to suit, fit, be worthy," sazâ "suitable, agreeing with, congruous, deserving of," Mid.Pers. sacitan/sazidan "to fit," sazešn "fitness," sazâg "fitting, worth;" Av. 1sak- "to understand or know a thing; to mark;" cf. Skt. śak- "to be able, powerful" śakta- "able, competent," śakti- "ability, power;" alternatively from Av. 2sak- "to go by, pass, pass away; to be up or over (of time)."
