The docstring is incorrect. The Vandermonde matrix produced is compatible with numpy polynomials that also go from high to low powers. I would have done it the other way round, so index matched power, but that isn't how it is.
I've never seen the vector powers that way around in literature. Shouldn't we fix it to correspond to the (vast) majority of publications? I'm also somewhat skeptical about including 2-liners like these in the main numpy namespace, but we've been there this week already, so I'll keep quiet :) Regards Stéfan
