approxfun2: Bilinear interpolation function of data on a regular grid

Description

Generates a fast function f(x,y) that interpolates gridded data, based on the analogous subroutine approxfun in 1D.

Usage

approxfun2(x, y, z, outside = NA)

Value

Returns a fast and vectorized interpolation function f(x,y)

Arguments

x

n-vector of x-coordinates; must be strictly monotonically increasing, but not necessarily equally spaced

y

m-vector of y-coordinates; must be strictly monotonically increasing, but not necessarily equally spaced

z

n-by-m matrix containing the known function values at the (x,y)-coordinates

outside

value of the approximation function outside the grid (default is NA)
