CLsqFit:GetBasisFunc

The GetBasisFunc method returns the basis function currently registered with the CLsqFit object. The basis function is either the default built-in n-dimensional polynomial or a function that was set using the SetBasisFunc method.

Syntax

sName = CLsqFit:GetBasisFunc()

sName is a string that identifies the basis function in use. See Remarks.

Remarks

This function returns a string with the following values:

1	The built-in (default) n-dimensional polynomial basis function.
2	The built-in Hyperplane basis function.
(else)	The name of a basis function defined in the script.

Example

The following script retrieves the name of the basis function in use. In this example, no function is registered using SetBasisFunc, so the built-in n-dimensional polynomial is used by default.

L = new_lsqfit()	-- create a CLsqFit object
	-- no function declared, n-Dimensional polynomial (1) used.
sName = L:GetBasisFunc()	-- fetch the name of the basis function
Printf( "Func= '%s'\n", sName )	-- result: Func= '1'

The next example defines a basis function in the script and registers it, The name of the basis function is then fetched and listed.

function MyFunc( n, c )	-- declare a basis function to fit a line
b = {}
b[1] = 1
b[2] = c[1] * c[1]
return b
end	-- end of basis function

L = new_lsqfit()	-- create a CLsqFit object
L:SetBasisFunc( "MyFunc" )	-- register the basis function
sName = L:GetBasisFunc()	-- fetch the name of the basis function
Printf( "Func= '%s'\n", sName )	-- result: Func= 'MyFunc'
