Abstract
Often we have a set of n data points (z i, y i), i = 1, ... , n, and want to find a function which matches the measured points and smoothly interpolates between them. For example, we might have measured the distortions on a lens at a series of different angles away from the axis and wish to find a smooth curve to represent the distortions as a function of angle.
