bernstein

Arguments

n

a positive integer, the order.

t

a scalar or row vector.

If t is scalar, t contains the number of points of Bezier curves. In this case, the bernstein function create linspace(0, 1, t)vector. If t is vector, this values must be in [0; 1]

b

a length(t)-by-(n+1) matrix of doubles.

Description

This function returns a matrix b containing the Bernstein polynomials evaluated at the elements of t

This function is used to compute the points of Bezier curve. See bezier help page.

Examples

Compute the matrix of third order Bernstein polynomials

t = linspace(0, 1, 5);
b = bernstein(3, t)

nb = 4;
b = bernstein(2, nb)
