### Lagrange Polynom

Lagrange interpolation is a method for determining a polynomial function passing through a given number of points. It allows a function to be estimated using some known values, called grid points. Since Lagrange basis functions are non-zero at only one point and 1 at all other points, the Lagrange polynomial at any given point is equal to the corresponding grid point. The Lagrange interpolation method has its applications in areas such as numerics, mathematical modeling, and signal processing. A disadvantage is that it produces very high degree polynomials very quickly with many grid points.

The individual Lagrange polynomials are:

${L}_{i}\left(x\right)=\frac{\left(x-{x}_{0}\right)\dots \left(x-{x}_{i-1}\right)\left(x-{x}_{i+1}\right)\dots \left(x-{x}_{n}\right)}{\left({x}_{i}-{x}_{0}\right)\dots \left({x}_{i}-{x}_{i-1}\right)\left({x}_{i}-{x}_{i+1}\right)\dots \left({x}_{i}-{x}_{n}\right)}$

The Lagrange interpolation polynomial is:

${I}_{n}\left(x\right)=\sum _{i=0}^{n}{y}_{i}\cdot {L}_{i}\left(x\right)$
