Math::GSL::Chebyshev(3)

NAME
Math::GSL::Chebyshev - Univariate Chebyshev Series Approximation

SYNOPSIS
    use Math::GSL::Chebyshev qw/:all/;

    my $cheb             = gsl_cheb_alloc(40);
    my $function         = sub { sin(cos($_[0])) };

    gsl_cheb_init($cheb, $function, 0, 10);

    my $x                = gsl_cheb_eval($cheb, 5.5 );
    my ($status,$y,$err) = gsl_cheb_eval_err($cheb, 7.5 );
    gsl_cheb_free($cheb);

DESCRIPTION

•   "gsl_cheb_alloc($size)"

        my $cheb = gsl_cheb_alloc(50);

    Allocates a new Chebyshev object with $size sample points.

•   "gsl_cheb_free($cheb)"

    Deallocates memory associated to $cheb. Returns void.

•   "gsl_cheb_init($cheb,$function, $lower, $upper)"

        gsl_cheb_init($cheb, sub { sin(cos($_[0])) }, 0, 10 );

    Initiate a Chebyshev object with a function and upper and lower bounds. Returns void.

•   "gsl_cheb_eval($function, $value)"

        my $evaluated = gsl_cheb_eval($cheb, 5 );

    Returns a Perl scalar of the Chebyshev object $cheb evaluated at $value.

•   "gsl_cheb_eval_err($cheb, $value)"

        my ($status,$evaluated,$err) = gsl_cheb_eval($cheb, 5 );

    Returns a list consisting of a GSL status code, the evaluate value and the estimated error of the evaluation.

•   "gsl_cheb_eval_n "

•   "gsl_cheb_eval_n_err "

•   "gsl_cheb_eval_mode "

•   "gsl_cheb_eval_mode_e "

•   "gsl_cheb_calc_deriv($deriv,$cheb) "

       my $status = gsl_cheb_calc_deriv( $deriv, $cheb );

    This will calculate the derivative of $cheb and stores it in $deriv, which must be pre-allocated. Returns a GSL status code.

•   "gsl_cheb_calc_integ($integ,$cheb) "

       my $status = gsl_cheb_calc_integ( $deriv, $cheb );

    This will calculate the derivative of $cheb and stores it in $deriv, which must be pre-allocated. Returns a GSL status code.
