Exercises

Lay section 1.2 page 41

Exercise no. 1, 3, 5, 33, 7, 9, 11, 13.

Applications

In computer graphics, parametric curves called splines are often used. See the Spline Applets by Tim Lambert for examples. Systems of linear equations are important for finding spline curves satisfying various properties. Exercise 33 above gives a simple illustration of this.
