Abstract
A natural route to “optimistic” results for convergence of the interpolation process is to give up using “pure” algebraic polynomials and interpolate, for example, by piecewise polynomial functions. Such functions are referred to as splines. A spline is said to be of degree m if the degree of each polynomial is not higher than m and equal to m for at least one polynomial.
