Polynomials Library

This project is a supporting library for TreElM. It does not work on its own, but rather needs to be included in other projects, which also include TreElM. The library provides some functionality to deal with Legendre polynomials, especially transforming between modal and nodal representations.

We are now including FXTPACK, and are working on integrating it to allow a fast polynomial transformation directly from Legendre modes to Legendre nodes.
