Examples

Example 1.
Initial data, which were subject to approximation, were generated by the function sin(2x/π)sin(2y/π) with changing values of its argument on the interval [0 , 1] with the step 0.25 for x and y.

Input file contained coordinates of 25 points:

By selecting qx=1, qy=1, ex=1 ey=1 for the same input data, we had obtained the following

Calculation #2. Thu Nov 10 12:44:08 EST 2022

Maximum error is 0.03763636567674923 at x=0.25 y=0.25
Standard deviation is 0.00552270104131836247

Approximation formula:
(-0.0023584915+0.027621567X+0.02768925Y-0.027767392X2+1.4598988XY-0.027830912Y2)/(1-0.73942536X-0.7440697Y+0.71913296X2+0.4919999XY+0.7220544Y2),,
where X=x1.0 and Y=y1.0

Example 2.
Initial data, which were subject to approximation, were generated by the function (0.5 + Math.Sqrt(x) + y)/(1+2*Math.Sqrt(x)+0.5*y)
Input file contained coordinates of 9 points:
1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 3
1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 3
0.714285714 0.875 1 0.673273103 0.810660172 0.922263446 0.65108474 0.774519053 0.877257154

Selected values qx=0, qy=0, ex=0, ey=0.
This example (as many others) is used for validation of our software.

Output:

Calculation #1. Thu Nov 10 14:27:37 EST 2022

Maximum error is 2.5738106484113824E-10 at x=2.0 y=1.0
Standard deviation is 1.1759820214120459E-10

Approximation formula:
(0.5+1.0X+1.0Y)/(1+2.0X+0.5Y),
where X=x0.5 and Y=y1.0

The obtained result coincides with the initial formula.
