Yes, that's true, but I feel that the nearest neighbor and linear modes are useful even if they do clash slightly with the name. You'll note that the default configuration does, in fact, produce a smooth function.
- xyzzyz 15y agoEven cubic splines are not smooth. "Smooth" has very well defined meaning in math -- it means precisely "infinitely many times differentiable". Cubic splines are differentiable only finitely many times (only twice, actually).
