float y (Input)
The (x, y) coordinates of the evaluation point for the tensor-product spline.
Imsl_f_spline *sp (Input)
Pointer to the structure that represents the spline.

Synopsis with Optional Arguments
#include <imsl.h>
float imsl_f_spline_2d_value (float x, float y, Imsl_f_spline *sp,
IMSL_DERIV, int x_partial, int y_partial,

0)
Optional Arguments
IMSL_DERIV, int x_partial, int y_partial (Input)
Let p = x_partial and q = y_partial, and let s be the spline that is represented by the structure *sp, then this option produces the (p, q)-th derivative of s at (x, y), s(p,q) (x, y).
Default: x_partial = y_partial = 0
IMSL_GRID, int nx, float *xvec, int ny, float *yvec, float **value (Input/Output)
The argument xvec is the array of length nx containing the X coordinates at which the spline is to be evaluated. The argument yvec is the array of length ny containing the Y coordinates at which the spline is to be evaluated. The value of the spline on the nx by ny grid is returned in value.
IMSL_GRID_USER, int nx, float *xvec, int ny, float *yvec, float value_user[] (Input/Output)
The argument xvec is the array of length nx containing the X coordinates at which the spline is to be evaluated. The argument yvec is the array of length ny containing the Y coordinates at which the spline is to be evaluated. The value of the spline on the nx by ny grid is returned in the user-supplied space value_user.
Description
The function imsl_f_spline_2d_value computes the value of a tensor-product spline or one of its derivatives. This function is based on the discussion in de Boor (1978, pp. 351353).
Examples
Example 1
In this example, a spline interpolant s to a function f is constructed. Using the procedure imsl_f_spline_2d_interp to compute the interpolant, imsl_f_spline_2d_value is employed to compute s(x, y). The values of this partial derivative and the error are computed on a 4 × 4 grid and then displayed.

Example 2
In this example, a spline interpolant s to a function f is constructed. Using function imsl_f_spline_2d_interp to compute the interpolant, then imsl_f_spline_2d_value is employed to compute s(2,1) (x, y). The values of this partial derivative and the error are computed on a 4 × 4 grid and then displayed.
