I'm slightly embarrassed by how obvious this answer was. Thanks Stephen.

I'm trying to find a function which will assign exponential weights depending upon sample size. nu=an equally space coefficient sequence (.05,..,.5; by=.05). m=sample size (10 in this case) Adding each observation in nu, implies a weight of 1, which makes the sum of weights m. I need...

That's done the trick. Thank you.

I've just read a paper that references the use of student-t orthogonal polynomials. I understand how the Gauss-Hermite polynomials are derived, however applying the same process to the weight function (1 + t^2/v)^-(v+1)/2 I can't quite get an answer that looks anything like a polynomial...
