File to upload (Optional) Such as Grim.xlsx, GalSou.xlsx
Screen 'csv' data In 'csv' (Am or Eu) format,
ignored (but necessary) if a file is uploaded
Final mass, ashes In sample. •
iTinit, iTfin (or: 1, 0) Temperature indexes (0: last). •
Instead "Instead" (replace). •
Initial guesses Guesses for the parameters (n(a) triples). •
yntNum1 & 2 (If both 0: ignored) Numer. integrals. •
ynt_v Integrals. (If all 0: ignored.) •
Expected Expected (particular). •
xtol, ftol, maxiter (-1 → 2500×#guesses) Tolerances for x, y; max. iterations.
Show values Show graph coordinates.

From Excel file (uploaded '.xlsx' or inserted '.csv'), computes the parameters for the pseudo-Gaussians, in a TG experiment, from the DTG data, and computes the compositions (4 in the base data, with 2.nd to 4.th: hemicellulose, cellulose, lignin).
(a) Thus, n = 4 components.

The base 'csv' data lead to a run time of ~1 s, as well as the suggested 'xlsx' (which is the same). (NB: / not allowed in data.)
