Cubic splines are used to fit a smooth curve to a series of points with a piecewise series of cubic polynomial curves. In addition to their use in interpolation, they are of particular interest to engineers because the spline is defined as the shape that a thin flexible beam (of constant flexural stiffness) would take [...]
