ROOT::Math::Interpolator Class Reference

Class for performing function interpolation of points.

The class is instantiated with an interpolation methods, passed as an enumeration in the constructor. See Interpolation::Type for the available interpolation algorithms, which are implemented using GSL. See also the <A HREF=http://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/manual/html_node/Interpolation.html">GSL manual for more information. The class provides additional methods for computing derivatives and integrals of interpolating functions.

This class does not support copying.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

ROOT::Math::Interpolator::Interpolator ( unsigned int  ndata = 0,
Interpolation::Type  type = Interpolation::kCSPLINE 
)

Constructs an interpolator class from number of data points and with Interpolation::Type type.

The data can be set later on with the SetData method. In case the data size is not known, better using the default of zero or the next constructor later on. The default interpolation type is Cubic spline

ROOT::Math::Interpolator::Interpolator ( const std::vector< double > &  x,
const std::vector< double > &  y,
Interpolation::Type  type = Interpolation::kCSPLINE 
)

Constructs an interpolator class from vector of data points \( (x_i, y_i )\) and with Interpolation::Type type.

The method will compute a continuous interpolating function \( y(x) \) such that \( y_i = y ( x_i )\). The default interpolation type is Cubic spline
