Expected Background
The Spline Toolbox product started out as an extension of
the MATLAB environment of interest to experts in spline approximation,
to aid them in the construction and testing of new methods of spline
approximation. Such people will have mastered the material in PGS.
However, the basic toolbox commands, for constructing and using
spline approximations, are set up to be usable with no more knowledge
than it takes to understand what it means to, say, construct an interpolant
or a least squares approximant to some data, or what it means to differentiate
or integrate a function.
With that in mind, there are sections, like Some Simple Examples,
that are meant even for the novice, while sections devoted to a detailed
example, like the one on constructing a Chebyshev spline or on constructing
and using tensor products, are meant for users interested in developing
their own spline commands.
A "Glossary" at
the end of this guide provides definitions of almost all the mathematical
terms used in this document.
