` is broadcast over the columns of `c` for the evaluation. This keyword is useful when `c` is multidimensional. The default value is True. .. versionadded:: 1.7.0 Returns ------- values : ndarray, algebra_like The shape of the return value is described above. See Also -------- lagval2d, laggrid2d, lagval3d, laggrid3d Notes ----- The evaluation uses Clenshaw recursion, aka synthetic division. Examples -------- >>> from numpy.polynomial.laguerre import lagval >>> coef = [1,2,3] >>> lagval(1, coef) -0.5 >>> lagval([[1,2],[3,4]], coef) array([[-0.5, -4. ], [-4.5, -2. ]]) r
