matrix with two rows and n columns) and the name of a variable 
var (by default x).
The first list (resp. row) corresponds to the abscissa values xk (k=1..n), 
and the second list (resp. row) corresponds to ordinate values yk 
(k=1..n).
lagrange returns a polynomial expression P 
with respect to var of degree 
n-1, such that P(xi)=yi.

since x−1/2=0 for x=1, and x−1/2=1 for x=3.

Warning
f:=lagrange([1,2],[3,4],y) does not return a function 
but an expression with respect to y.
To define f as a function, input
Avoid f(x):=lagrange([1,2],[3,4],x) since
the Lagrange polynomial would be computed each time f is called
(indeed in a function definition, the second member of the assignment
is not evaluated).
Note also that 
g(x):=lagrange([1,2],[3,4]) would not work
since the default argument of lagrange
would be global, hence not the same as the local
variable used for the definition of g.
