Problem with lsquares



Hi,

I am new user of Maxima (Windows) and I am using 5.12.0

I am trying to run the examples listed in the Manual and I am having the following problem

(%i1) load("mnewton")$
(%i2) load("lsquares")$
(%i3) lsquares(matrix([1.1,7.1],[2.1,13.1],[3.1,25.1],[4.1,49.1]), [x,y], y=a*b^x+c, [a,b,c], [5,5,5]);
quotient is not exact
#0: mnewton(funclist=[2*b^4.1*c+2*b^3.1*c+2*b^2.1*c+2*b^1.1*c+2*a*b^8.199999999999999+2*a*b^6.2+2*a*b^4.2-98.2*b^4.1-50.2...,varlist=[a,b,c],guesslist=[5,5,5])(mnewton.mac line 89)
#1: lsquares(arglist=[matrix([1.1,7.1],[2.1,13.1],[3.1,25.1],[4.1,49.1]),[x,y],y = c+a*b^x,[a,b,c],[5,5,5]])(lsquares.mac line 136)
-- an error.  To debug this try debugmode(true);


Exact values are working OK.

Any help will be appreciated.
