A new class of C1 piecewise-cubic interpolatory polynomials is defined, by generalizing the definition of cubic X-splines given recently by Clenshaw & Negus (1978). It is shown that this new class contains a number of interpolatory functions which present practical advantages, when compared with the conventional cubic spline. © 1980 Academic Press Inc.
