57 // <synopsis>
58 // A <src>power logarithmic polynomial</src> is described by a set of coefficients;
59 // its fundamental operation is evaluating itself at some "x".
60 //
61 // Since the <src> power logarithmic olynomial</src> is a <src>Function</src>, the derivatives
62 // can be obtained as well.
63 //
64 // The parameter interface (see
65 // <linkto class="FunctionParam">FunctionParam</linkto> class),
66 // is used to provide an interface to the
67 // <linkto module="Fitting">Fitting</linkto> classes.
68 //
69 // This class is in general used implicitly by the <src>PowerLogarithmicPolynomial</src>
70 // class only.
