### Function Synopsis

    [P,dP1] = dlegpoly(N,x)

### Help Text

    DLEGPOLY - Evaluate the first N Legendre polynomials
     function [P,dP1] = dlegpoly(N,x)
    *****************************************************************************
      function [P,dP1,dP2] = dlegpoly(N,x,flag)
      This function evaluates the first N Legendre polynomials,the first and
      second derivatives at the vector x.

      Input:
        N       (scalar)       last polynomial order to evaluate
        x       (m x 1)        input vector of values to eval. the polys at
        flag    (scalar)       if flag=1, compute dP2

      Outputs:
        P       (N x m)      = [P1(x1) P1(x2)    ...    P1(xm);
                                P2(x1) P2(x2)    ...    P2(xm);
                                 .
                                 .
                                PN(x1) PN(x2)    ...    PN(xm)]

        dP1      (N x m)      =  derivative w.r.t. x of P
