`numpy.polynomial._polybase:ABCPolyBase.truncate`

source: /numpy/polynomial/_polybase.py:750

Signature

def truncate(self, size)

Summary

Truncate series to length size.

Extended Summary

Reduce the series to length size by discarding the high degree terms. The value of size must be a positive integer. This can be useful in least squares where the coefficients of the high degree terms may be very small.

Parameters

size : positive int: The series is reduced to length size by discarding the high degree terms. The value of size must be a positive integer.

Returns

new_series : series: New instance of series with truncated coefficients.
