65.2 Functions and Variables for interpol
=========================================

 -- Function: lagrange
          lagrange (<points>)
          lagrange (<points>, <option>)

     Computes the polynomial interpolation by the Lagrangian method.
     Argument <points> must be either:

        * a two column matrix, 'p:matrix([2,4],[5,6],[9,3])',
        * a list of pairs, 'p: [[2,4],[5,6],[9,3]]',
        * a list of numbers, 'p: [4,6,3]', in which case the abscissas
          will be assigned automatically to 1, 2, 3, etc.

     In the first two cases the pairs are ordered with respect to the
     first coordinate before making computations.

     With the <option> argument it is possible to select the name for
     the independent variable, which is ''x' by default; to define
     another one, write something like 'varname='z'.

     Note that when working with high degree polynomials, floating point
     evaluations are unstable.

     See also 'linearinterpol', 'cspline', and 'ratinterpol'.

     Examples:

          (%i1) load("interpol")$
          (%i2) p:[[7,2],[8,2],[1,5],[3,2],[6,7]]$

 -- Function: cspline
          cspline (<points>)
          cspline (<points>, <option1>, <option2>, ...)

     Computes the polynomial interpolation by the cubic splines method.
     Argument <points> must be either:

        * a two column matrix, 'p:matrix([2,4],[5,6],[9,3])',
        * a list of pairs, 'p: [[2,4],[5,6],[9,3]]',
        * a list of numbers, 'p: [4,6,3]', in which case the abscissas
          will be assigned automatically to 1, 2, 3, etc.

     In the first two cases the pairs are ordered with respect to the
     first coordinate before making computations.

     There are three options to fit specific needs:
        * ''d1', default ''unknown', is the first derivative at x_1; if
          it is ''unknown', the second derivative at x_1 is made equal
          to 0 (natural cubic spline); if it is equal to a number, the
          second derivative is calculated based on this number.

        * ''dn', default ''unknown', is the first derivative at x_n; if
          it is ''unknown', the second derivative at x_n is made equal
          to 0 (natural cubic spline); if it is equal to a number, the
          second derivative is calculated based on this number.

        * ''varname', default ''x', is the name of the independent
          variable.

 -- Function: ratinterpol
          ratinterpol (<points>, <numdeg>)
          ratinterpol (<points>, <numdeg>, <option1>)

     Generates a rational interpolator for data given by <points> and
     the degree of the numerator being equal to <numdeg>; the degree of
     the denominator is calculated automatically.  Argument <points>
     must be either:

        * a two column matrix, 'p:matrix([2,4],[5,6],[9,3])',
        * a list of pairs, 'p: [[2,4],[5,6],[9,3]]',
        * a list of numbers, 'p: [4,6,3]', in which case the abscissas
          will be assigned automatically to 1, 2, 3, etc.

     In the first two cases the pairs are ordered with respect to the
     first coordinate before making computations.

     There is one option to fit specific needs:
        * ''varname', default ''x', is the name of the independent
          variable.
