If you want to determine the equation of the curve through n points then the following code will give you the coefficients of the polynomial of degree n-1 and save these coefficients to the coefficients[] array (starting from the constant term). The x coordinates do not have to be in order. This is an example of a Lagrange polynomial.
var xPoints=[2,4,3,6,7,10]; //example coordinates
var yPoints=[2,5,-2,0,2,8];
var coefficients=[];
for (var m=0; m<xPoints.length; m++) coefficients[m]=0;
for (var m=0; m<xPoints.length; m++) {
var newCoefficients=[];
for (var nc=0; nc<xPoints.length; nc++) newCoefficients[nc]=0;
if (m>0) {
newCoefficients[0]=-xPoints[0]/(xPoints[m]-xPoints[0]);
newCoefficients[1]=1/(xPoints[m]-xPoints[0]);
} else {
newCoefficients[0]=-xPoints[1]/(xPoints[m]-xPoints[1]);
newCoefficients[1]=1/(xPoints[m]-xPoints[1]);
}
var startIndex=1;
if (m==0) startIndex=2;
for (var n=startIndex; n<xPoints.length; n++) {
if (m==n) continue;
for (var nc=xPoints.length-1; nc>=1; nc--) {
newCoefficients[nc]=newCoefficients[nc]*(-xPoints[n]/(xPoints[m]-xPoints[n]))+newCoefficients[nc-1]/(xPoints[m]-xPoints[n]);
}
newCoefficients[0]=newCoefficients[0]*(-xPoints[n]/(xPoints[m]-xPoints[n]));
}
for (var nc=0; nc<xPoints.length; nc++) coefficients[nc]+=yPoints[m]*newCoefficients[nc];
}
