Can someone write a MATLAB code for this?
For any function f and n+1 distinct nodes r, the Lagrange interpolation factors f = P + R, where P represents the polynomial approximation and R is the approximation error. The following MATLAB function, function a - linterp-polyXY, is used to calculate the coefficients a for the polynomial Px = a0 + a1x + a2x^2 + ... + anx^n. This solves Worksheet 7Q2.
Write a MATLAB function that uses P to approximate f for any positive integer d and real number r. The function signature should be function y = num_diff(x, Y, d), and it should invoke both linterp-poly (see above) and MATLAB's polyder. Test your code by constructing a problem where you expect the answer to be exact (up to rounding errors). What happens when d equals or exceeds the number of given interpolation nodes (n+1)?
