# An efficient method of spline approximation for power function
2+
3+
Let $P(m, X, N)$ be an $m$-degree polynomials in $X\in\mathbb{R}$
4+
having fixed non-negative integers $m$ and $N$.
5+
Essentially, the polynomial $P(m, X, N)$ is a result of rearrangement inside Faulhaber's formula
6+
in context of Knuth's work Johann Faulhaber and sums of powers.
7+
8+
In this manuscript we discuss approximation properties of polynomial $P(m,X,N)$.
9+
In particular, the polynomial $P(m,X,N)$ approximates odd power function $X^{2m+1}$ in certain neighborhood
10+
of fixed non-negative integer $N$ with percentage error lesser than $1\%$.
11+
12+
By increasing the value of $N$ the length of convergence interval with odd-power $X^{2m+1}$ increasing as well.
13+
14+
Furthermore, this approximation technique is generalized for arbitrary non-negative exponent power function $X^j$
15+
by using splines.
