✦ Synopsis

Title of program: SPLINESMOOTH smoothing a set of experimental data, measured at a sequence of values of some independent variable. This is done as a first Catalogue number: AAQO step towards interpolating, integrating, differentiating, or otherwise transforming the function represented by the data. Program obtainable from: CPC Program Library, Queen's Sometimes a suitable family of theoretically motivated func-University of Belfast, N.

We present here a method which uses spline functions for Computer: DEC VAX 11/780; Installation: Department of smoothing a given set of data. The use of spines is suggested Physics,
