[pstricks] cspline in pst-plot

[Patrice MÉGRET]

Dear Luis,

Thanks for this comment.

What I would like to stress is that the blue curve has a discontinuity on the slope and I am not sure it is normal for a cubic spline.
Moreover, if I draw a vertical line around this "discontinuity" the blue curve is no longer single point 

In fact, I would expect a behavior similar to the red curve in the pst-plot example.
In my example, cspline  behaves like curve and vice-versa.


Best regards,
Patrice

You are not making any mistake, and there is no discontinuity. It just happens that the green curve completely covers the blue spline in that particular section.
If you change the order of the two \listplot commands you will see only the blue.
