orthax.polynomial.polypow

orthax.polynomial.polypow(c, pow, maxpower=16)Source

Raise a polynomial to a power.

Returns the polynomial c raised to the power pow. The argument c is a sequence of coefficients ordered from low to high. i.e., [1,2,3] is the series 1 + 2*x + 3*x**2.

Parameters:
  • c (array_like) – 1-D array of array of series coefficients ordered from low to high degree.

  • pow (integer) – Power to which the series will be raised

  • maxpower (integer, optional) – Maximum power allowed. This is mainly to limit growth of the series to unmanageable size. Default is 16

Returns:

coef (ndarray) – Power series of power.

Examples

>>> from orthax import polynomial as P
>>> P.polypow([1,2,3], 2)
