Synopsis

1-D polynomial function of order <= 5

Description

A 1-D polynomial of order <= 5, taking the functional form:

f(x) = sum_(i=0)^5 c_i (x-x_off)^i ,

where the coefficients c_i are the parameters numbered i+1, and x_off is parameter number 7.

Note that there is a degeneracy in the parameters, so it is recommended to set at least one of c_0 or x_off to zero and freeze it; thawing both may lead to unpredicted results.

Note also that all coefficients except c_0 are default frozen, so that the default polynomial model is a constant.

Parameters

Number	Name	Description
1	c0	coefficient c_0
2	c1	coefficient c_1
3	c2	coefficient c_2
4	c3	coefficient c_3
5	c4	coefficient c_4
6	c5	coefficient c_5
7	offset	offset for x x_off
