Link between interpolation and numerical series

46 Views Asked by At

There are the following types of interpolation:

  • polynomial interpolation
  • trigonometric interpolation.

There are also the following types of numerical series:

  • Taylor series, as a power series
  • Fourier series, as a trigonometric series.

It feels like there is a link between the concepts of interpolation and numerical series. Is it just a coincidence, or it is more to say about it? I mean, given a series, can we plug the corresponding basis functions into an interpolation task?
