Name:

guessdegree returns the minimal degree needed for a polynomial to approximate a function with a certain error on an interval.

Library names:

sollya_obj_t sollya_lib_guessdegree(sollya_obj_t, sollya_obj_t,                                     sollya_obj_t, ...) sollya_obj_t sollya_lib_v_guessdegree(sollya_obj_t, sollya_obj_t,                                       sollya_obj_t, va_list)

Usage:

guessdegree(f,I,eps,w,bound) : (function, range, constant, function, constant) -> range

Parameters:

Description:

Example 1:

   > guessdegree(exp(x),[-1;1],1e-10);
   [10;10]

Example 2:

   > guessdegree(exp(x),[-1;1],1e-10,default, 9);
   [10;@Inf@]

Example 3:

   > guessdegree(1, [-1;1], 1e-8, 1/exp(x));
   [8;9]
