numpy.polynomial.laguerre.lagval(x, c, tensor=True)
[source]
Evaluate a Laguerre series at points x.
If c
is of length n + 1
, this function returns the value:
The parameter x
is converted to an array only if it is a tuple or a list, otherwise it is treated as a scalar. In either case, either x
or its elements must support multiplication and addition both with themselves and with the elements of c
.
If c
is a 1-D array, then p(x)
will have the same shape as x
. If c
is multidimensional, then the shape of the result depends on the value of tensor
. If tensor
is true the shape will be c.shape[1:] + x.shape. If tensor
is false the shape will be c.shape[1:]. Note that scalars have shape (,).
Trailing zeros in the coefficients will be used in the evaluation, so they should be avoided if efficiency is a concern.
Parameters: |
x : array_like, compatible object If c : array_like Array of coefficients ordered so that the coefficients for terms of degree n are contained in c[n]. If tensor : boolean, optional If True, the shape of the coefficient array is extended with ones on the right, one for each dimension of New in version 1.7.0. |

Returns: |
values : ndarray, algebra_like The shape of the return value is described above. |
The evaluation uses Clenshaw recursion, aka synthetic division.
