represents a spline function created by the SplineFit function parametrizing a curve with the parameter in the specified domain. When given a parameter value as an argument it returns the corresponding point on the curve.
  • The object generated with SplineFit is parametrized such that a parameter value of 0 corresponds to , 1 corresponds to , etc.
