Construct a spline from its four control points. This is the same as just using the CubicSpline2d constructor directly;

CubicSpline2d.bezier p1 p2 p3 p4

is equivalent to

CubicSpline2d ( p1, p2, p3, p4 )

Construct a spline in Hermite form, from the position and derivative values at its start and end points, like so:

The spline is based on a parameter that ranges from 0 to 1; as a result, in most cases the length of each derivative vector should be roughly equal to the length of the resulting spline.

Get the control points of a spline as a tuple.

( p1, p2, p3, p4 ) =
    CubicSpline2d.controlPoints exampleSpline




--> p1 = Point2d ( 1, 1 )
--> p2 = Point2d ( 3, 4 )
--> p3 = Point2d ( 5, 1 )
--> p4 = Point2d ( 7, 4 )

Get the start point of a spline. This is equal to the spline's first control point.

CubicSpline2d.startPoint exampleSpline
--> Point2d ( 1, 1 )

Get the end point of a spline. This is equal to the spline's last control point.

CubicSpline2d.endPoint exampleSpline
--> Point2d ( 7, 4 )

Get the start derivative of a spline. This is equal to three times the vector from the spline's first control point to its second.

CubicSpline2d.startDerivative exampleSpline
--> Vector2d ( 6, 9 )

Get the end derivative of a spline. This is equal to three times the vector from the spline's third control point to its fourth.

CubicSpline2d.endDerivative exampleSpline
--> Vector2d ( 6, 9 )

Get a point along a spline, based on a parameter that ranges from 0 to 1. A parameter value of 0 corresponds to the start point of the spline and a value of 1 corresponds to the end point.

CubicSpline2d.point exampleSpline 1
--> Point2d ( 7, 4 )

Get the deriative value at a point along a spline, based on a parameter that ranges from 0 to 1. A parameter value of 0 corresponds to the start derivative of the spline and a value of 1 corresponds to the end derivative.

Take a spline defined in global coordinates, and return it expressed in local coordinates relative to a given reference frame.
