6 "IRIT Version 6.0"
.SH NAME
HERMITE
SurfaceType HERMITE( CurveType Bndry1, CurveType Bndry2,
CurveType Tan1, CurveType Tan2 )
or
CurveType HERMITE( PointType Bndry1, PointType Bndry2,
VectorType Tan1, VectorType Tan2 )
Constructs a cubic fit between Bndry1 and Bndry2 so that
first derivative continuity constraints, as prescribed by Tan1 at
Bndry1 and Tan2 at Bndry2, are preserved.
Returns either a curve or a surface, according to type of input parameters.
Example:
h00 = HERMITE( point( 0, 0, 0 ),
point( 1, 1, 0 ),
vector( 1, 0, 0 ),
vector( 1, 0, 0 ) );
Constructs a curve in the shape of the first basis function of the cubic
Hermite basis functions.
