 *
 * DESCRIPTION
 *  Supplies 2-D data interpolation and approximation routines
 *
 * IMPORTS
 *  plot.h
 *    - cp_extend()
 *    - structs: curve_points, coordval, coordinate
 *
 *  setshow.h
 *    - samples, axis array[] variables
 *    - plottypes
 *
 *  proto.h
 *    - solve_tri_diag()
 *    - typedef tri_diag
 *
 * EXPORTS
 *  gen_interp()
 *  sort_points()
 *  cp_implode()
 *
 * BUGS and TODO
 *  I would really have liked to use Gershon Elbers contouring code for
 *  all the stuff done here, but I failed. So I used my own code.
 *  If somebody is able to consolidate Gershon's code for this purpose
 *  a lot of gnuplot users would be very happy - due to memory problems.

 *
 * HISTORY
 * Changes:
 *  Nov 24, 1995  Markus Schuh (M.Schuh@meteo.uni-koeln.de):
 *      changed the algorithm for csplines
 *      added algorithm for approximation csplines
 *      copied point storage and range fix from plot2d.c
 *
 *  Dec 12, 1995 David Denholm
 *      oops - at the time this is called, stored co-ords are
 *      internal (ie maybe log of data) but min/max are in
 *      user co-ordinates.
 *      Work with min and max of internal co-ords, and
 *      check at the end whether external min and max need to
 *      be increased. (since samples_1 is typically 100 ; we
 *      dont want to take more logs than necessary)
 *      Also, need to take into account which axes are active
 *
 *  Jun 30, 1996 Jens Emmerich
 *      implemented handling of UNDEFINED points

   The implementation is based closely on the implementation for Bezier
