radixInterpolate


\begin{usage}
radixInterpolate(n, m)
\end{usage}


Signature


\begin{params}
{\em n} & Z & A point\\
{\em m} & R & The value of the desired polynomial at n\\\end{params}

\begin{retval}
Returns the unique polynomial $p$\ such that $p(n) = m$\ and
\be...
...rt\vert p \vert\vert_\infty \le \frac{n - 1}2\,.
\end{displaymath}
\end{retval}

\begin{remarks}
The above bound is useful when an upper bound $M$on $\vert\vert...
...wn a priori,
since it is then sufficient to take $n \ge 2 M + 1$.
\end{remarks}
