+ - ** Legendre polynomials** are suited to problems involving spherical coordinates.
23
+ - ** Chebyshev polynomials** are effective in reducing errors from numerical methods such as quadrature, interpolation, and approximation.
24
+ - ** Ultraspherical polynomials** are an extension of Legendre and Chebyshev polynomials. They are useful for spherical harmonics in higher dimensions.
25
+ - ** Jacobi polynomials** are useful in tailoring polynomial behavior over specific intervals, especially around boundary points.
26
+ - ** Laguerre polynomials** are suited to problems involving exponential growth and decay due to their semi-infinite domain.
27
