71<p>
72      The cardinal quintic B-spline interpolator is very nearly the same as the cubic
73      B-spline interpolator, with the modification that the basis functions are constructed
74      by convolving a box function with itself five times, rather than three times
75      as is done with the cubic B-spline.
76    </p>
77<p>
78      The basis functions of the quintic B-spline interpolator are more smooth than
79      the cubic <span class="emphasis"><em>B</em></span>-spline interpolator, and hence this is very
80      useful for computing second derivatives. For example, the second derivative
81      of the cubic spline interpolator is a piecewise linear function, whereas the
82      second derivative of the quintic <span class="emphasis"><em>B</em></span>-spline is a cubic spline.
83      The graph of the second derivative of the quintic <span class="emphasis"><em>B</em></span>-spline
84      is therefore more visually appealing, though whether it is in fact more accurate
85      depends on the smoothness of your data.
