\title{
  Trigonometric Polynomial
}
\description{
  Computes the trigonometric coefficients.
}
\usage{
trigPoly(x, m)
}
\arguments{
  \item{x}{data from \code{t=0} to \code{t=2*(n-1)*pi/n}.}
  \item{m}{degree of trigonometric regression.}
}
\details{
  Compute the coefficients of the trigonometric series of degree \code{m},
  \deqn{a_0 + \sum_k(a_k \cos(k t) + b_k \sin(k t))}
  by applying orthogonality relations.
}
\value{
  Coefficients as a list with components \code{a0}, \code{a}, and \code{b}.

\note{
  For irregular spaced data or data not covering the whole period, use
