numpy.polynomial.legendre.legmulx

numpy.polynomial.legendre.legmulx(c)[source]

Multiply a Legendre series by x.

Multiply the Legendre series c by x, where x is the independent variable.

Parameters
carray_like

1-D array of Legendre series coefficients ordered from low to high.

Returns
outndarray

Array representing the result of the multiplication.

Notes

The multiplication uses the recursion relationship for Legendre polynomials in the form

xP_i(x) = ((i + 1)*P_{i + 1}(x) + i*P_{i - 1}(x))/(2i + 1)

Examples

>>>
>>> from numpy.polynomial import legendre as L
>>> L.legmulx([1,2,3])
array([ 0.66666667, 2.2, 1.33333333, 1.8]) # may vary
