linear interpolation between two data points

Question

I have two data points x and y:

  x = 5 (value corresponding to 95%)
  y = 17 (value corresponding to 102.5%)

No

Answer 1

You can use numpy.interp function to interpolate a value

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

x = [95, 102.5]
y = [5, 17]

x_new = 100

y_new = np.interp(x_new, x, y)
print(y_new)
# 13.0

plt.plot(x, y, "og-", x_new, y_new, "or");
