Calculate a regression line
This computes a least-squares regression for two sets of measurements.
Parameters: | y (x,) -- two sets of measurements. Both arrays should have the same length. If only x is given (and y=None), then it must be a two-dimensional array where one dimension has length 2. The two sets of measurements are then found by splitting the array along the length-2 dimension. |

Returns: |

Examples
>>> from scipy import stats
>>> import numpy as np
>>> x = np.random.random(10)
>>> y = np.random.random(10)
>>> slope, intercept, r_value, p_value, std_err = stats.linregress(x,y)
# To get coefficient of determination (r_squared)
>>> print "r-squared:", r_value**2
r-squared: 0.15286643777
