In the Sturm-Liouville boundary value problem, there is a special case, called
Chebyshev's differential equation, which is defined as:</p>
<p>

<p>
where <i>n</i> is a real number. The solutions of this equation are called
Chebyshev functions of degree <i>n</i>.</p>
<p>
If <i>n</i> is a non-negative integer, the Chebyshev functions are often referred
to as Chebyshev polynomials, <img align="top" src="chebyI02.png"></p>
<p>
The Chebyshev polynomials can be expressed by Rodrigues' formula:</p>
