Normally the planetary and satellite ephemerides are provided in tabular form, where the user interpolates between points in order to obtain the ephemerides. There are other methods of providing ephemerides by means of polynomial representations. The user is supplied with the coefficients of a set of polynomials which allow him a fast ephemerides evaluation.
