The routine and its subsidiaries will now return an
error status as supplied by PDA_XERMSG.
SUBROUTINE PDA_DPLINT (N, X, Y, C, STATUS)
***BEGIN PROLOGUE PDA_DPLINT
***PURPOSE Produce the polynomial which interpolates a set of discrete
data points.
***LIBRARY SLATEC
***CATEGORY E1B
***TYPE DOUBLE PRECISION (POLINT-S, PDA_DPLINT-D)
***KEYWORDS POLYNOMIAL INTERPOLATION
***AUTHOR Huddleston, R. E., (SNLL)
***DESCRIPTION
Abstract
Subroutine PDA_DPLINT is designed to produce the polynomial which
interpolates the data (X(I),Y(I)), I=1,...,N. PDA_DPLINT sets up
information in the array C which can be used by subroutine PDA_DPOLVL
to evaluate the polynomial and its derivatives and by subroutine
PDA_DPOLCF to produce the coefficients.
Formal Parameters
*** All TYPE REAL variables are DOUBLE PRECISION ***
N - the number of data points (N .GE. 1)
X - the array of abscissas (all of which must be distinct)
Y - the array of ordinates
C - an array of information used by subroutines
STATUS - Returned error status.
The status must be zero on entry. This
routine does not check the status on entry.
******* Dimensioning Information *******
Arrays X,Y, and C must be dimensioned at least N in the calling
program.
