Please how can I resolve this error.

The OptimizeWarning you're running into isn't a full-blown error,
but a heads-up that the covariance of the parameters couldn't be
nailed down. This often crops up when the fit's all over the map or
when there's something fishy with the model or data. To get around
this and up your curve fitting game, give these tricks a whirl:

1. Throw in some initial parameter guesstimates:

# Tweak the number and values of initial guesses based on your model
popt, _ = curve_fit(non_linear_model, preciamz, areaqamz, p0=[1, 1, 1])

. 2. Set some guardrails for your parameters if you've got a ballpark
idea of where they should land:

# Adjust bounds based on your model and data
popt, _ = curve_fit(non_linear_model, preciamz, areaqamz,
bounds=([0, 0, 0], [100, 100, 100]))

. 3. Make sure your `non_linear_model` function is on point and
coughs up values for all input data:

# Example function, tweak based on your specific model
def non_linear_model(x, a, b, c):
return a * np.exp(-b * x) + c

. 4. Give your data a once-over for any oddball points or
inconsistencies that might throw a wrench in the works.

5. If you're still hitting a wall, try a different optimization
method:

popt, _ = curve_fit(non_linear_model, preciamz, areaqamz, method='trf')

. 6. Think about using the lmfit library for more bells and whistles
in fitting options and better handling of parameter uncertainties.

If you're still stuck, double-check your model and data
to make sure they're suitable for curve fitting. Keep in mind
that curve_fit assumes continuous variables, so discrete or
step-like data might gum up the works.
