# numpy.polynomial.laguerre.lagfromroots

polynomial.laguerre.lagfromroots(roots)

  Generate a Laguerre series with given roots.

  The function returns the coefficients of the polynomial

  \[p(x) = (x - r_0) * (x - r_1) * ... * (x - r_n),\]

  in Laguerre form, where the r_n are the roots specified in `roots`. If a zero has multiplicity n, then it must appear in `roots` n times. For instance, if 2 is a root of multiplicity three and 3 is a root of multiplicity 2, then `roots` looks something like [2, 2, 2, 3, 3]. The roots can appear in any order.

  If the returned coefficients are c, then

  \[p(x) = c_0 + c_1 * L_1(x) + ... + c_n * L_n(x)\]

  The coefficient of the last term is not generally 1 for monic polynomials in Laguerre form.

  Parameters
    roots array_like

      Sequence containing the roots.

  Returns
    out ndarray

      1-D array of coefficients. If all roots are real then out is a real array, if some of the roots are complex, then out is complex even if all the coefficients in the result are real (see Examples below).

  Examples

      >>> from numpy.polynomial.laguerre import lagfromroots, lagval
      >>> coef = lagfromroots((-1, 0, 1))
      >>> lagval((-1, 0, 1), coef)
      array([0.,  0.,  0.])
      >>> coef = lagfromroots((-1j, 1j))
      >>> lagval((-1j, 1j), coef)
      array([0.+0.j, 0.+0.j])
