gnuplot_test, a C code which writes data and command files so that gnuplot() plots the results.

humps, a C code which evaluates the humps() function, its first and second derivatives, and its antiderivative. The functions are plotted using gnuplot().

runge, a C code which evaluates the Runge() function, its first and second derivatives, and its antiderivative. This function causes a breakdown for polynomial interpolation over equally spaced nodes in [-1,+1]. The functions are plotted using gnuplot().

sinc, a C code which evaluates the sinc() function, its first and second derivative and its antiderivative. The normalized function is defined by sincn=sin(pi*x)/(pi*x), the unnormalized function is sincu=sin(x)/x. Plots of these functions are made.
