## @deftypefn  {Function File} {@var{pp} =} spline (@var{x}, @var{y})
## @deftypefnx {Function File} {@var{yi} =} spline (@var{x}, @var{y}, @var{xi})
## Return the cubic spline interpolant of points @var{x} and @var{y}.
##
## When called with two arguments, return the piecewise polynomial @var{pp}
## that may be used with @code{ppval} to evaluate the polynomial at specific
## points.  When called with a third input argument, @code{spline} evaluates
## the spline at the points @var{xi}.  The third calling form @code{spline
## (@var{x}, @var{y}, @var{xi})} is equivalent to @code{ppval (spline
## (@var{x}, @var{y}), @var{xi})}.
##
## The variable @var{x} must be a vector of length @var{n}.  @var{y} can be
## either a vector or array.  If @var{y} is a vector it must have a length of
## either @var{n} or @code{@var{n} + 2}.  If the length of @var{y} is
## @var{n}, then the "not-a-knot" end condition is used.  If the length of
## @var{y} is @code{@var{n} + 2}, then the first and last values of the
## vector @var{y} are the values of the first derivative of the cubic spline
## at the endpoints.
##
## If @var{y} is an array, then the size of @var{y} must have the form
## @tex
## $$[s_1, s_2, \cdots, s_k, n]$$
## @end tex
## @ifnottex
## @code{[@var{s1}, @var{s2}, @dots{}, @var{sk}, @var{n}]}
## @end ifnottex

## $$[s_1, s_2, \cdots, s_k, n + 2].$$
## @end tex
## @ifnottex
## @code{[@var{s1}, @var{s2}, @dots{}, @var{sk}, @var{n} + 2]}.
## @end ifnottex
## The array is reshaped internally to a matrix where the leading
## dimension is given by
## @tex
## $$s_1 s_2 \cdots s_k$$
## @end tex
## @ifnottex
## @code{@var{s1} * @var{s2} * @dots{} * @var{sk}}

## This code is based on csape.m from octave-forge, but has been
