polynomial_conversion
polynomial_conversion,
a Octave code which
converts representations of a polynomial between monomial, Bernstein,
Chebyshev, Gegenbauer, Hermite, Laguerre and Legendre forms.
The monomial or power sum representation of a polynomial of degree n
involves a vector a of coefficients, and has the form:
p(x) = a(0) + a(1) * x + a(2) * x^2 + ... + a(n) * x^n
A Chebyshev representation, for instance, will use a different
vector c of coefficients, and Chebyshev basis functions T(x) so that
p(x) = c(0) T0(x) + c(1) * T1(x) + c(2) * T2(x) + ... + c(n) * Tn(x)
It is the task of this software to take the coefficients for one
representation, and determine the corresponding coefficients in
another specified representation.
