Testing:
import calc [-125, -64, -27, -8, -1, 0, 1, 8, 27, 64, 125] [75, 48, 27, 12, 3, 0, 3, 12, 27, 48, 75]
i.e. I get back the functions u(x) = x**3 and du(x) = 3*x**2, per differential calculus.
Finally had a chance to focus on this. Kinda nice. Just set it to music - i.e. graph it - and there lot's to see as well, for those of us who find that added visual element essential for grasping what is happening, and preventing glazing ove. Are you going to take it that far, or shall I. Art
