scipy.special.eval_laguerre(n, x, out=None) = <ufunc 'eval_laguerre'>¶ Evaluate Laguerre polynomial at a point.
The Laguerre polynomials can be defined via the confluent hypergeometric function \({}_1F_1\) as
\[L_n(x) = {}_1F_1(-n, 1, x).\]When \(n\) is an integer the result is a polynomial of degree \(n\).
Parameters: n : array_like
Degree of the polynomial. If not an integer the result is determined via the relation to the confluent hypergeometric function.
x : array_like
Points at which to evaluate the Laguerre polynomial
Returns: L : ndarray
Values of the Laguerre polynomial
