The interpolated function is continuous at the data points and the first derivative is also continuous. Cubic hermite splines have four control points but how it uses the control points is a bit different than youd expect. This makes the resulting interpolating function continuous and makes its derivative continuous too. Compare the interpolation results produced by spline, pchip, and makima for two different data sets. Given a set of points in the plane, determine a smooth curve that approximates the points.
