Michael Scholz commented on MATH-1650:
--------------------------------------
[^2025-01-02_ClampedSplineInterpolator.patch] now contains:
* Different approach by not overloading {{interpolate()}} anymore but
providing two separate functions – a regular 2-parameter and another
4-parameter function for specifying the clamped spline's boundary conditions
(slopes/derivatives). This should avoid blowing up the API.
* Thorough test package.
How to proceed efficiently in order to close this issue and also to close our
former [GitHub pull request #83|https://github.com/apache/commons-math/pull/83]?

> We would like to contribute a new _clamped_ spline interpolation function in
> addition to the already available unclamped spline function. Our new
> {{ClampedSplineInterpolator}} is based on the same textbook as the original
> {{{}SplineInterpolator{}}}. The clamped spline offers additional
> parameterisation of starting and ending slopes (1st derivatives) as boundary
> conditions in order to provide more flexibility in spline creation.
> In this patch we follow the approach of subclassing the original
> {{SplineInterpolator}} and simply overloading it's {{interpolate()}} function
> by these two additional parameters. Is this an acceptable way or does the
> community recommend a different design approach?
> After clarifying the basic implementation approach we could also supply
> necessary tests etc. and finally contribute everything via ordinary GitHub
> pull request.
