Suppose that the function f(x)  is continuous everywhere. Suppose further that the points (Xj, Yj), j=1...(n-1) that lie on the graph f(x) , are known to us. If  and we used all the points known to us to construct an interpolating polynomial for the function f(x) , then the interpolating polynomial will have degree
