Re: [Help-gsl] GSL1.15: interp.c: 150: ERROR: interpolation error

I like it, but the function name should not say only "extrap", but should 
reflect the fact that it performs both interpolation and extrapolation.

Also, a flag can be set indicating if the operation was interpolation or 
extrapolation.


BTW, as we are on the subject: any plans for multidimensional interpolation?
