Discrete-point linear interpolation implies an increase or decrease along a segment by equal differences between adjacent locations; exponential interpolation implies that the progression is by equal ratio. In both forms the interpolation from <span class="emphasis"><em>a</em></span> to <span class="emphasis"><em>b</em></span> is such as to assume that the value <span class="emphasis"><em>b</em></span> will be attained in the n + 1th location. For discontinuous functions, and for the segment encompassing the end location, this value will not actually be reached, although it may eventually appear as a result of final scaling.
