function [x_out] = leja(x_in)
% function [x_out] = leja(x_in)
%
%    Input:   x_in
%
%    Output:  x_out
%
%    Program orders the values x_in (supposed to be the roots of a 
%    polynomial) in this way that computing the polynomial coefficients
%    by using the m-file poly yields numerically accurate results.
%    Try, e.g., 
%               z=exp(j*(1:100)*2*pi/100);
%    and compute  
%               p1 = poly(z);
%               p2 = poly(leja(z));
%    which both should lead to the polynomial x^100-1. You will be
%    surprised!
