Return the Vandermonde matrix whose next to last column is c.
If n is specified, it determines the number of columns; otherwise, n is taken to be equal to the length of c.
A Vandermonde matrix has the form:
c(1)^(n-1) … c(1)^2 c(1) 1 c(2)^(n-1) … c(2)^2 c(2) 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . c(n)^(n-1) … c(n)^2 c(n) 1
