Hi,

does somebody know abouts an optimal interpolation subrroutine. I am trying
to compare some different interpolation techniques and this is the only one
than I don't have programmed.

thank you!

If you check out a digital signal processing book on upsampling
or downsampling (or perhaps multirate sampling) you'll see that it
can be the way to go in some cases.

Why don't you use FFT's to do the interpolation then? You know, FFT the curve in question, zerofill
(or truncate) the result and FFT back?
