Returns a Reducer that computes the slope and offset for a (weighted) linear regression of 2 inputs. The inputs are expected to be x data followed by y data. Where applicable, the outputs are named: "scale", "offset".

It determines the slope (\"scale\") and y-intercept (\"offset\") of the linear relationship. This Reducer operates without any input arguments and returns a Reducer object. The core function is computing these two parameters, scale and offset, representing the best-fit line for the provided data.\n"]]
