# scipy.special.eval_chebyt

scipy.special.eval_chebyt(n, x, out=None) = <ufunc 'eval_chebyt'>

  Evaluate Chebyshev polynomial of the first kind at a point.

  The Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind can be defined via the Gauss hypergeometric function \({}_2F_1\) as

  \[T_n(x) = {}_2F_1(n, -n; 1/2; (1 - x)/2).\]

  When \(n\) is an integer the result is a polynomial of degree \(n\). See 22.5.47 in [AS] for details.

  Parameters
    n array_like

      Degree of the polynomial. If not an integer, the result is determined via the relation to the Gauss hypergeometric function.

    x array_like

      Points at which to evaluate the Chebyshev polynomial

  Returns
    T ndarray

      Values of the Chebyshev polynomial
