Polynomial interpolation given a mathematic function f(x), an interval [a,b] and a natural number n

edit

Hi, i'm a computer science bachelor 's student and i'm having some trouble with this exercice, i'd like to get some help since it's my first course using sagemath, thanks, the exercice:

Write a function that takes as input a mathematical function f, an interval [a, b] and a natural n and return the interpolative polynomial of the function in the n + 1 points resulting from dividing the interval into subinterval n of equal length. That is to say, a polynomial p (x) of degree ≤ n such p (xi) = f (xi), where xi = a + i * ((b-a)/n) for all i = 0, ... n. I'm stuck in the way of transforming a list into a matrix. This is what i've tried so far:

def list1(a,b,n):
    r=(b-a)/n
    return [a+i*r for i in range(n+1)]
def list2(a,b,n):
    r=(b-a)/n
    l=[]
    for i in range(n+1):
        l.append(a+i*r)
    return l

def functionlist(f,llista):
    return[f(i) for i in llista]

px=matrix(7, 1,list2(1, 5, 6))
show(px)
py=matrix(7, 1, functionlist(sin, list1(1, 5, 6)))
show(py)

points= zip(px,py); points

A=matrix(RDF,[[1,px[0],px[0]^2,px[0]^3],[1,px[1],px[1]^2,px[1]^3],[1,px[2],px[2]^2,px[2]^3],[1,px[3],px[3]^2,px[3]^3]]); A

And gives me this error:

NotImplementedError                       Traceback (most recent call last)
