gollark: I'm actually considering putting it on my website.
gollark: You can use it for fun stuff like this:
gollark: It's meant to be a Lagrange interpolation implementation, and I think it does *do* that, but the simplification isn't very effective, see, so it just produces these weird obfuscated expressions.
gollark: I had WolframAlpha do that, it seems to be.
gollark: The raw unsimplified output is: `(1 * (((x - 2) / (1 - 2)) * ((x - 3) / (1 - 3)) * ((x - 4) / (1 - 4)))) + (4 * (((x - 1) / (2 - 1)) * ((x - 3) / (2 - 3)) * ((x - 4) / (2 - 4)))) + (9 * (((x - 1) / (3 - 1)) * ((x - 2) / (3 - 2)) * ((x - 4) / (3 - 4)))) + (16 * (((x - 1) / (4 - 1)) * ((x - 2) / (4 - 2)) * ((x - 3) / (4 - 3))))`.
