Examples and Tests:

DISPLAY_GRID_TYPES shows examples in 2 dimensions of the level 0, 1 and 2 versions of the grid types available in SPINTERP, namely Chebyshev, Clenshaw-Curtis (not what you think!), Gauss-Patterson, Maximum, and NoBoundary.

• display_grid_types.m the code.
• display_grid_types.txt the output file.
• chebyshev_grid.png points for level 0/1/2 Chebyshev grids.
• clenshaw-curtis_grid.png points for level 0/1/2 Clenshaw-Curtis grids.
• default_grid.png points for level 0/1/2 default (=Clenshaw-Curtis) grids.
• gauss-patterson_grid.png points for level 0/1/2 Gauss-Patterson grids.
• maximum_grid.png points for level 0/1/2 Maximum grids.
• noboundary_grid.png points for level 0/1/2 No Boundary grids.

SINCOS seeks an interpolant of z(x,y)=sin(x)+cos(y).

• sincos_test.m creates an interpolant to z=sin(x)+cos(y) and displays it.
• sincos_test.txt creates an interpolant to z=sin(x)+cos(y) and displays it.
• sincos_f.m evaluates z=sin(x)+cos(y).
• sincos_grid.png an image of the grid.
• sincos_interp.png an image comparing the function and its interpolant.

TEST_ONE demonstrates how SPINTERP can be used to compute and evaluate an interpolant to a function of a multidimensional argument.

• test_one.m carries out the test.
• f_one.m the function to be interpolated.
• test_one.png a plot comparing the interpolant and the original function.
• test_one.txt the output file.

TEST_TWO demonstrates how SPINTERP can be used to estimate the integral of function of a multidimensional argument.

• test_two.m carries out the test.
• f_two.m the function to be integrated.
• test_two.txt the output file.

TEST_THREE demonstrates how SPINTERP can be used to optimize (in this case, minimize) a function of a multidimensional argument.

• test_three.m carries out the test.
• f_three.m the function to be minimized.
• g_three.m evaluates log ( f_three + 2 ), useful for plotting contour lines.
• test_three.png a contour plot of the function to be minimized.
• test_three.txt the output file.

TIMING estimates the amount of time required to set up a sparse grid for dimensions 1 through 20, and levels 0 through 5.

• timing_test.m carries out the test.
• timing_test.txt the output file.
