public class RealLagrangeBasis
extends java.lang.Object
implements PolynomialBasis

The Lagrange Basis for real polynomials. For a given set of sampling points {x_1, ..., x_n}, the corresponding Lagrange polynomials are L_k = \kronecker_kj \forall j=1..n. The explicit form is L_k= \prod_{j=0, j\neq k}^n \frac{t-t_j}{t_k-t_j}

Specified by:

getBasisVector in interface PolynomialBasis

Parameters:

k -

dimension

public int dimension()

The dimension ( # of sampling points)

Specified by:

dimension in interface PolynomialBasis
