Default linest internals

This probably isn't the right forum to ask in, but are the equations
used by linest to calculate all of the bits that it can output
documented somewhere?

Thanks!

Thanks to both Michael and Stan, but that's only 2 of the bits. I should
have said I'm mostly interested in the bits that *aren't* slope and
intercept (they're trivially easy). In particular, I haven't found
anywhere the equations to calculate the SE of the coefficients and the SE
of the constant.
