Abstract

An iterative interpolator permits linear interpolation between a first known value and second known value, which are defined by n-coordinate values in an n-dimensional coordinate system. An intermediate value to be interpolated is defined by n-1 intermediate values. By an interval nesting process in a first coordinate direction, an approximate value is formed for the first intermediate value. A copying device transfers this interval nesting process to the required coordinate value in the other coordinate direction.
