leg: Legendre polynomial matrix

Description

Legendre polynomials of order 'n' are created given a vector 'x' and normalized to lay between values u and v.

Usage

leg(x,n=1,u=-1,v=1, intercept=TRUE, intercept1=FALSE)

Value

$S3

an Legendre polynomial matrix of order n.

Arguments

x

numeric vector to be used for the polynomial.

n

order of the Legendre polynomials.

u

lower bound for the polynomial.

v

upper bound for the polynomial.

intercept

a TRUE/FALSE value indicating if the intercept should be included.

intercept1

a TRUE/FALSE value indicating if the intercept should have value 1 (is multiplied by sqrt(2)).
