 def interp_qa_v1(self):
 """Calculate the lake outflow based on linear interpolation. Required control parameters: |N| |llake_control.Q| Required derived parameters: |llake_derived.TOY| |llake_derived.VQ| Required aide sequence: |llake_aides.VQ| Calculated aide sequence: |llake_aides.QA| Examples: In preparation for the following examples, define a short simulation time period with a simulation step size of 12 hours and initialize the required model object: Next, for the sake of brevity, define a test function: The following three relationships between the auxiliary term `vq` and the tabulated discharge `q` are taken as examples. Each one is valid for one of the first three days in January and is defined via five nodes: In the first example, discharge does not depend on the actual value of the auxiliary term and is always zero: vq(0.0) qa(0.0) vq(0.75) qa(0.0) vq(1.0) qa(0.0) vq(1.333333) qa(0.0) vq(2.0) qa(0.0) vq(2.333333) qa(0.0) vq(3.0) qa(0.0) vq(3.333333) qa(0.0) The seconds example demonstrates that relationships are allowed to contain jumps, which is the case for the (`vq`,`q`) pairs (2,6) and (2,7). Also it demonstrates that when the highest `vq` value is exceeded linear extrapolation based on the two highest (`vq`,`q`) pairs is performed: vq(0.0) qa(0.0) vq(0.75) qa(1.5) vq(1.0) qa(2.0) vq(1.333333) qa(3.0) vq(2.0) qa(5.0) vq(2.333333) qa(7.0) vq(3.0) qa(9.0) vq(3.333333) qa(10.0) The third example shows that the relationships do not need to be arranged monotonously increasing. Particualarly for the extrapolation range, this could result in negative values of `qa`, which is avoided by setting it to zero in such cases: vq(0.5) qa(1.0) vq(1.5) qa(1.5) vq(2.5) qa(2.0) vq(3.5) qa(2.5) vq(4.5) qa(1.5) vq(10.0) qa(0.0) """
