Description

The idea here is to add functions to db.cljs that takes a state and changes the value under the points key to add the points in the diagram from the slide. To get the y values call infer and fix the degree and coefficient choices to some known function that approximates the y values on the slide!

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the existing `db.clj` file to understand how state and points are managed. Look at the referenced slide from Vikash's NIPS tutorial to identify the exact points to add. Use the `infer` function to get y values with a known function approximating the slide's y values.
