chebfun_v2_0501

  The chebfun project is a collection of algorithms, and a software system in object-oriented Matlab, which extends familiar powerful methods of numerical computation involving numbers to continuous or piecewise-continuous functions. It also implements continuous analogues of linear algebra notions like the QR decomposition and the SVD. The mathematical basis of the system combines tools of Chebyshev expansions, fast Fourier transform, barycentric interpolation, Clenshaw-Curtis quadrature, and recursive zerofinding.
