Legendre Series (numpy.polynomial.legendre)

This module provides a number of objects (mostly functions) useful for dealing with Legendre series, including a Legendre class that encapsulates the usual arithmetic operations. (General information on how this module represents and works with such polynomials is in the docstring for its “parent” sub-package, numpy.polynomial).

Classes

Legendre(coef[, domain, window])

A Legendre series class.

Constants

legdomain
legzero
legone
legx

Arithmetic

legadd(c1, c2)	Add one Legendre series to another.
legsub(c1, c2)	Subtract one Legendre series from another.
legmulx(c)	Multiply a Legendre series by x.
legmul(c1, c2)	Multiply one Legendre series by another.
legdiv(c1, c2)	Divide one Legendre series by another.
legpow(c, pow[, maxpower])	Raise a Legendre series to a power.
legval(x, c[, tensor])	Evaluate a Legendre series at points x.
legval2d(x, y, c)	Evaluate a 2-D Legendre series at points (x, y).
legval3d(x, y, z, c)	Evaluate a 3-D Legendre series at points (x, y, z).
leggrid2d(x, y, c)	Evaluate a 2-D Legendre series on the Cartesian product of x and y.
leggrid3d(x, y, z, c)	Evaluate a 3-D Legendre series on the Cartesian product of x, y, and z.
