FAQs on Interpolation - Mathematics Optional Notes for UPSC

1. What is interpolation?

Ans. Interpolation is a method of constructing new data points within the range of a discrete set of known data points.

2. How is interpolation different from extrapolation?

Ans. Interpolation involves estimating values between known data points, while extrapolation involves estimating values outside the range of known data points.

3. What are some common methods of interpolation?

Ans. Some common methods of interpolation include linear interpolation, polynomial interpolation, and spline interpolation.

4. How is interpolation used in data analysis and modeling?

Ans. Interpolation is used in data analysis to estimate unknown values, fill in missing data, and create smooth curves to represent the data.

5. Can interpolation be used to predict future trends in data?

Ans. No, interpolation cannot be used to predict future trends in data as it only estimates values between known data points and does not account for changes in the data over time.
