 JOSEPH-LOUIS LAGRANGE

• Joseph-Louis Lagrange (born January 25, 1736, Turin, Sardinia-

Piedmont [Italy]—died April 10, 1813, Paris, France), Italian French
mathematician who made great contributions to mathematics.
 INTERPOLATION
• In the mathematical field of numerical analysis, interpolation is a type of 
estimation, a method of constructing new data points within the range of
a discrete set of known data points.
 LAGRANGE INTERPOLATION
• In numerical analysis, Lagrange polynomials are used for polynomial
interpolation. For a given set of points with no two values equal,
the Lagrange polynomial is the polynomial of lowest degree that
assumes at each value the corresponding value , so that the functions
coincide at each point.
 FORMULA

• This is a lagrange’s interpolation formula and can be used both equal

and unequal intervals.
 ADVANTAGES
• The formula is simple and easy to
remember.
• There is no need to construct the
divided difference table.
DISADVANTAGES
• There is always a chance to
committing some error.
• The calculation provided no check
whether the functional values used
to taken correctly or not.
 CONCLUSION
• Lagrange has a better performance at the boundaries which make it more
convenient for the real time applications.
Example No 1: Interpolate the value of the function corresponding to X=4 using
Lagrange’s interpolation formula from the following set of data:
X 2 3 5 8 12
F(X) 10 15 25 40 60

Using Lagrange’s interpolation formula find y(10) from the following table

X 5 6 9 11
Y 12 13 14 16
