WTF!
I know the function interp!! but I thougth I must program it... :-(

David Verrelli on 25 Sep 2017

That's true, the instructions here do indicate that you're supposed to program it from scratch (e.g. find a(n) & a(n+1)).

For convenience, it would be useful if the code input variables were related to the variables listed in the solution window. We are given a, b, alpha, and beta in the Test Suite; the function that we are to type involves vb, va, a, and b. Sure, we can update it, but it just seems careless.

This is single line program if you use built-in function 'interp1'.

useful function => interp1

I couldn't remember interp1 but I formed a very silly code to do the same

this won't work when the point is not in middle of 2 elements, for example a=3.3 in test 1
