Abstract: The features of the ordinary least squares method, which gives a possible way to a solution of the overdetermined systems of algebraic equations and allows to estimate the uncertainties of the obtained solutions, are considered. As the important physical example we define four-loop QCD coefficients in the dependence of the relation between pole and running heavy quarks masses on the number of light flavors, using the existing results of numerical supercomputer based calculations of the corresponding four-loop contributions at different fixed numbers of light flavors. Stability of the found solutions to the number of the considered equations and unknowns is demonstrated and supported by the Pearsons's $chi$-squared test.
