Prerequisite

• FunctionParam class
• Function1D

Etymology

A 1-dimensional OddPolynomial's parameters.

Synopsis

An OddPolynomial is described by a set of coefficients; its fundamental operation is evaluating itself at some "x". The number of coefficients is the order of the polynomial divided by two, plus one.

Since the OddPolynomial is a Function, the derivatives can be obtained as well.

The parameter interface (see FunctionParam class), is used to provide an interface to the Fitting classes.

This class is in general used implicitly by the OddPolynomial class only.

Example

     OddPolynomial<Float> pf(3);  // Third order polynomial - coeffs 0 by default
     pf.setCoefficient(0, 1.0);
     pf[1] = 2.0;               // 2x^3 + 1x^1
     pf(2); // == 18

Template Type Argument Requirements (T)

• T should have standard numerical operators. Current implementation only tested for real types (and their AutoDiffs).

Thrown Exceptions

• Assertion in debug mode if attempt is made to address incorrect coefficients

To Do

• Nothing I know off
