pwiselinterp: Piecewise linear interpolation

In cmna: Computational Methods for Numerical Analysis

Description

Finds a piecewise linear function that interpolates the data points

Usage

pwiselinterp(x, y)

Arguments

x	a vector of x values
y	a vector of y values

Details

pwiselinterp finds a piecewise linear function that interpolates the data points. For each x-y ordered pair, there function finds the unique line interpolating them. The function will return a data.frame with three columns.

The column x is the upper bound of the domain for the given piece. The columns m and b represent the coefficients from the y-intercept form of the linear equation, y = mx + b.

The matrix will contain length(x) rows with the first row having m and b of NA.

Value

a matrix with the linear function components
