    """
    Differentiate a Legendre series.

    Returns the Legendre series coefficients `c` differentiated `m` times
    along `axis`.  At each iteration the result is multiplied by `scl` (the
    scaling factor is for use in a linear change of variable). The argument
    `c` is an array of coefficients from low to high degree along each
    axis, e.g., [1,2,3] represents the series ``1*L_0 + 2*L_1 + 3*L_2``
    while [[1,2],[1,2]] represents ``1*L_0(x)*L_0(y) + 1*L_1(x)*L_0(y) +
    2*L_0(x)*L_1(y) + 2*L_1(x)*L_1(y)`` if axis=0 is ``x`` and axis=1 is
    ``y``.

    Parameters
    ----------
    c : array_like
        Array of Legendre series coefficients. If c is multidimensional the
        different axis correspond to different variables with the degree in
        each axis given by the corresponding index.
    m : int, optional
        Number of derivatives taken, must be non-negative. (Default: 1)
    scl : scalar, optional
        Each differentiation is multiplied by `scl`.  The end result is
        multiplication by ``scl**m``.  This is for use in a linear change of
        variable. (Default: 1)
    axis : int, optional
        Axis over which the derivative is taken. (Default: 0).

    Integrate a Legendre series.

    Returns the Legendre series coefficients `c` integrated `m` times from

    **multiplied** by `scl` and an integration constant, `k`, is added.
    The scaling factor is for use in a linear change of variable.  ("Buyer

    to be the reciprocal of what one might expect; for more information,
    see the Notes section below.)  The argument `c` is an array of

    Parameters
    ----------
    c : array_like
        Array of Legendre series coefficients. If c is multidimensional the

    m : int, optional
        Order of integration, must be positive. (Default: 1)
    k : {[], list, scalar}, optional
        Integration constant(s).  The value of the first integral at
        ``lbnd`` is the first value in the list, the value of the second
        integral at ``lbnd`` is the second value, etc.  If ``k == []`` (the
        default), all constants are set to zero.  If ``m == 1``, a single
        scalar can be given instead of a list.
    lbnd : scalar, optional
        The lower bound of the integral. (Default: 0)
    scl : scalar, optional
        Following each integration the result is *multiplied* by `scl`
        before the integration constant is added. (Default: 1)
    axis : int, optional
        Axis over which the integral is taken. (Default: 0).

        .. versionadded:: 1.7.0

    Returns
    -------
    S : ndarray
        Legendre series coefficient array of the integral.

    Raises
    ------
    ValueError
        If ``m < 0``, ``len(k) > m``, ``np.isscalar(lbnd) == False``, or
        ``np.isscalar(scl) == False``.

    See Also
    --------
    legder

    Notes
    -----
    Note that the result of each integration is *multiplied* by `scl`.
    Why is this important to note?  Say one is making a linear change of
    variable :math:`u = ax + b` in an integral relative to `x`.  Then
    .. math::`dx = du/a`, so one will need to set `scl` equal to
    :math:`1/a` - perhaps not what one would have first thought.

    Also note that, in general, the result of integrating a C-series needs
    to be "reprojected" onto the C-series basis set.  Thus, typically,
    the result of this function is "unintuitive," albeit correct; see
    Examples section below.

    Evaluate a Legendre series at points x.

    The parameter `x` is converted to an array only if it is a tuple or a
    list, otherwise it is treated as a scalar. In either case, either `x`
    or its elements must support multiplication and addition both with
    themselves and with the elements of `c`.

    If `c` is a 1-D array, then `p(x)` will have the same shape as `x`.  If
    `c` is multidimensional, then the shape of the result depends on the
    value of `tensor`. If `tensor` is true the shape will be c.shape[1:] +
    x.shape. If `tensor` is false the shape will be c.shape[1:]. Note that
    scalars have shape (,).

    Trailing zeros in the coefficients will be used in the evaluation, so
    they should be avoided if efficiency is a concern.

        dimensional case the coefficients may be thought of as stored in
        the columns of `c`.
    tensor : boolean, optional
        If True, the shape of the coefficient array is extended with ones
        on the right, one for each dimension of `x`. Scalars have dimension 0
        for this action. The result is that every column of coefficients in
        `c` is evaluated for every element of `x`. If False, `x` is broadcast

    Least squares fit of Legendre series to data.

    Return the coefficients of a Legendre series of degree `deg` that is the

    where `n` is `deg`.

    Parameters
    ----------
    x : array_like, shape (M,)
        x-coordinates of the M sample points ``(x[i], y[i])``.
    y : array_like, shape (M,) or (M, K)
        y-coordinates of the sample points. Several data sets of sample

    deg : int

    w : array_like, shape (`M`,), optional
        Weights. If not None, the contribution of each point
        ``(x[i],y[i])`` to the fit is weighted by `w[i]`. Ideally the
        weights are chosen so that the errors of the products ``w[i]*y[i]``

    -------
    coef : ndarray, shape (M,) or (M, K)
        Legendre coefficients ordered from low to high. If `y` was 2-D,
        the coefficients for the data in column k  of `y` are in column
        `k`.

    [residuals, rank, singular_values, rcond] : list
        These values are only returned if `full` = True

        resid -- sum of squared residuals of the least squares fit
        rank -- the numerical rank of the scaled Vandermonde matrix

    RankWarning
        The rank of the coefficient matrix in the least-squares fit is

    Notes
    -----
    The solution is the coefficients of the Legendre series `p` that
    minimizes the sum of the weighted squared errors

    .. math:: E = \\sum_j w_j^2 * |y_j - p(x_j)|^2,

    where :math:`w_j` are the weights. This problem is solved by setting up
    as the (typically) overdetermined matrix equation

    .. math:: V(x) * c = w * y,

    where `V` is the weighted pseudo Vandermonde matrix of `x`, `c` are the
    coefficients to be solved for, `w` are the weights, and `y` are the
    observed values.  This equation is then solved using the singular value
    decomposition of `V`.

    If some of the singular values of `V` are so small that they are
    neglected, then a `RankWarning` will be issued. This means that the
    coefficient values may be poorly determined. Using a lower order fit
    will usually get rid of the warning.  The `rcond` parameter can also be
    set to a value smaller than its default, but the resulting fit may be
    spurious and have large contributions from roundoff error.

    Fits using Legendre series are usually better conditioned than fits
    using power series, but much can depend on the distribution of the
    sample points and the smoothness of the data. If the quality of the fit
    is inadequate splines may be a good alternative.

    The root estimates are obtained as the eigenvalues of the companion

    errors due to the numerical instability of the series for such values.
    Roots with multiplicity greater than 1 will also show larger errors as
    the value of the series near such points is relatively insensitive to
    errors in the roots. Isolated roots near the origin can be improved by
    a few iterations of Newton's method.
