53// A 1-dimensional OddPolynomial's parameters.
54// </etymology>
55//
56// <synopsis>
57// An <src>OddPolynomial</src> is described by a set of coefficients;
58// its fundamental operation is evaluating itself at some "x".
59// The number of coefficients is the order of the polynomial divided
60// by two, plus one.
61//
62// Since the <src>OddPolynomial</src> is a <src>Function</src>, the derivatives
63// can be obtained as well.
64//
65// The parameter interface (see
66// <linkto class="FunctionParam">FunctionParam</linkto> class),
67// is used to provide an interface to the
68// <linkto module="Fitting">Fitting</linkto> classes.
69//
70// This class is in general used implicitly by the <src>OddPolynomial</src>
71// class only.
72// </synopsis>
73//
74// <example>
75// <srcblock>
76// OddPolynomial<Float> pf(3); // Third order polynomial - coeffs 0 by default
77// pf.setCoefficient(0, 1.0);
78// pf[1] = 2.0; // 2x^3 + 1x^1
79// pf(2); // == 18
80// </srcblock>
81// </example>
82
83// <templating arg=T>
84// <li> T should have standard numerical operators. Current
85// implementation only tested for real types (and their AutoDiffs).
86// </templating>
87
88// <thrown>
89// <li> Assertion in debug mode if attempt is made to address incorrect
90// coefficients
91// </thrown>
