"standard error" of OPR values

[jtrv]

hi all,

as a student going into his first year of undergrad this fall, this kind of stuff interests me. what level (or course equivalent or experience of the student) is this kind of stuff typically taught at?

I have researched into interpolation, as I would like to spend some time developing spline path generation for auton modes independently, and that particular area requires a bit of knowledge in Linear Algebra, which I will begin the process of self-teaching soon enough.

As for this, what would be the equivalent of interpolation:linear algebra?

I don't mean to hijack the thread, but it feels like the most appropriate place to ask...
