	Try the book "Data Reduction and Error Analysis for the Physical
Sciences"  by Philip R Bevington.  It was printed in 1969, and just this
year, one of his colleagues updated the book.  The 1992 version comes with
a disk of the source code in Pascal.  Both versions have the Fortran code.
I just used the book to write a nonlinear least sqaures program using the
Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm.  Works great!
