vec2Lfd {fda}

Make a Linear Differential Operator Object from a Vector

Description

A linear differential operator object of order $m$ is constructed from the number in a vector of length $m$.

Usage

vec2Lfd(bwtvec, rangeval=c(0,1))

Arguments

bwtvec

a vector of coefficients to define the linear differential operator object

rangeval

a vector of length 2 specifying the range over which the operator is defined

Value

a linear differential operator object
