It is most useful to use a positive value of order that is smaller than the order of f.
If your data is noisy, you might want to fit it using a smoothing spline. If called in the form cs spline x,y, it returns the ppform of the cubic spline with break sequence x that takes the value yi at xi, all i, and satisfies the notaknot end condition. Then plot the b spline with knot sequence t, as well as its polynomial pieces, by using the bspline function. To do this, you can specify the values vector y with two extra elements, one at the beginning and one at the end, to define the endpoint slopes create a vector of data y and another vector with the xcoordinates of the data. A smoothing parameter, to be chosen by you, determines just how closely the smoothing spline follows the given data. The construction of a spline satisfying some interpolation or approximation conditions usually requires a collocation matrix, i.
