CHEBYSHEV_INTERP_1D
Chebyshev Polynomial Interpolation in 1D

CHEBYSHEV_INTERP_1D is a C++ library which determines the combination of Chebyshev polynomials which interpolates a set of data, so that p(x(i)) = y(i).

CHEBYSHEV_INTERP_1D needs the QR_SOLVE and R8LIB libraries. The test program needs the TEST_INTERP library.
