Lagrange's Interpolation - GeeksforGeeks
Interpolation is a method of finding new data points within the range of a discrete set of known data points (Source Wiki). In other words interpolation is the technique to estimate the value of a mathematical function, for any intermediate value of the independent variable.
For example, in the given table we're given 4 set of discrete data points, for an unknown function f(x) :
How to find?
Here we can apply the Lagrange's interpolation formula to get our solution.
The Lagrange's Interpolation formula:
If, y = f(x) takes the values y0, y1, … , yn corresponding to x = x0, x1 , … , xn then,
This method is preferred over its counterparts like Newton's method because it is applicable even for unequally spaced values of x.
We can use interpolation techniques to find an intermediate data point say at x = 3.
