"""
    Python program to show how to interpolate and evaluate a polynomial
    using Neville's method.
    Neville’s method evaluates a polynomial that passes through a
    given set of x and y points for a particular x value (x0) using the
    Newton polynomial form.

       Interpolate and evaluate a polynomial using Neville's method.
       Arguments:
           x_points, y_points: Iterables of x and corresponding y points through
            which the polynomial passes.
           x0: The value of x to evaluate the polynomial for.
       Return Value: A list of the approximated value and the Neville iterations
