Computer Assignment # 2
Due on Thursday, October 15, 2015
Write programs (preferably in Matlab but without using the inbuilt functions or in C)
to generate (i) Lagrange polynomial and (ii) cubic spline for a given data set (n data
points). The program should take input from a file and write the output in another file.
For cubic spline, use (a) direct method and (b) curvature-based formulation utilizing
Thomas algorithm for solving the system of equations. Also, keep options for
different boundary conditions (i.e., natural spline, parabolic runout spline).
Submit by 5pm, Oct 15, 2015 or before
