    Notes
    -----
    B-spline basis elements are defined via

    .. math::

        B_{i, 0}(x) = 1, \textrm{if $t_i \le x < t_{i+1}$, otherwise $0$,}

        B_{i, k}(x) = \frac{x - t_i}{t_{i+k} - t_i} B_{i, k-1}(x)
                 + \frac{t_{i+k+1} - x}{t_{i+k+1} - t_{i+1}} B_{i+1, k-1}(x)

    **Implementation details**

    - At least ``k+1`` coefficients are required for a spline of degree `k`,
      so that ``n >= k+1``. Additional coefficients, ``c[j]`` with
      ``j > n``, are ignored.

    - B-spline basis elements of degree `k` form a partition of unity on the
      *base interval*, ``t[k] <= x <= t[n]``.


    Examples
    --------

    Translating the recursive definition of B-splines into Python code, we have:

    >>> def B(x, k, i, t):
    ...    if k == 0:
    ...       return 1.0 if t[i] <= x < t[i+1] else 0.0
    ...    if t[i+k] == t[i]:
    ...       c1 = 0.0
    ...    else:
    ...       c1 = (x - t[i])/(t[i+k] - t[i]) * B(x, k-1, i, t)
    ...    if t[i+k+1] == t[i+1]:
    ...       c2 = 0.0
    ...    else:
    ...       c2 = (t[i+k+1] - x)/(t[i+k+1] - t[i+1]) * B(x, k-1, i+1, t)
    ...    return c1 + c2

    >>> def bspline(x, t, c, k):
    ...    n = len(t) - k - 1
    ...    assert (n >= k+1) and (len(c) >= n)
    ...    return sum(c[i] * B(x, k, i, t) for i in range(n))

    Note that this is an inefficient (if straightforward) way to
    evaluate B-splines --- this spline class does it in an equivalent,
    but much more efficient way.

    Here we construct a quadratic spline function on the base interval
    ``2 <= x <= 4`` and compare with the naive way of evaluating the spline:

    >>> from scipy.interpolate import BSpline
    >>> k = 2
    >>> t = [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6]
    >>> c = [-1, 2, 0, -1]
    >>> spl = BSpline(t, c, k)
    >>> spl(2.5)
    array(1.375)
    >>> bspline(2.5, t, c, k)
    1.375

    Note that outside of the base interval results differ. This is because
    `BSpline` extrapolates the first and last polynomial pieces of B-spline
    functions active on the base interval.

    >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    >>> fig, ax = plt.subplots()
    >>> xx = np.linspace(1.5, 4.5, 50)
    >>> ax.plot(xx, [bspline(x, t, c ,k) for x in xx], 'r-', lw=3, label='naive')
    >>> ax.plot(xx, spl(xx), 'b-', lw=4, alpha=0.7, label='BSpline')
    >>> ax.grid(True)
    >>> ax.legend(loc='best')

    """Compute the (coefficients of) interpolating B-spline.

    Parameters
    ----------
    x : array_like, shape (n,)
        Abscissas.
    y : array_like, shape (n, ...)
        Ordinates.
    k : int, optional
        B-spline degree. Default is cubic, k=3.
    t : array_like, shape (nt + k + 1,), optional.
        Knots.
        The number of knots needs to agree with the number of datapoints and
        the number of derivatives at the edges. Specifically, ``nt - n`` must
        equal ``len(deriv_l) + len(deriv_r)``.
    bc_type : 2-tuple or None
        Boundary conditions.
        Default is None, which means choosing the boundary conditions
        automatically. Otherwise, it must be a length-two tuple where the first
        element sets the boundary conditions at ``x[0]`` and the second
        element sets the boundary conditions at ``x[-1]``. Each of these must
        be an iterable of pairs ``(order, value)`` which gives the values of
        derivatives of specified orders at the given edge of the interpolation
        interval.
        Alternatively, the following string aliases are recognized:

        * ``"clamped"``: The first derivatives at the ends are zero. This is
           equivalent to ``bc_type=([(1, 0.0)], [(1, 0.0)])``.
        * ``"natural"``: The second derivatives at ends are zero. This is
          equivalent to ``bc_type=([(2, 0.0)], [(2, 0.0)])``.
        * ``"not-a-knot"`` (default): The first and second segments are the same
          polynomial. This is equivalent to having ``bc_type=None``.

    axis : int, optional
        Interpolation axis. Default is 0.
    check_finite : bool, optional
        Whether to check that the input arrays contain only finite numbers.
        Disabling may give a performance gain, but may result in problems
        (crashes, non-termination) if the inputs do contain infinities or NaNs.
        Default is True.

    Returns
    -------
    b : a BSpline object of the degree ``k`` and with knots ``t``.

    Examples
    --------

    Use cubic interpolation on Chebyshev nodes:

    >>> def cheb_nodes(N):
    ...     jj = 2.*np.arange(N) + 1
    ...     x = np.cos(np.pi * jj / 2 / N)[::-1]
    ...     return x

    >>> x = cheb_nodes(20)
    >>> y = np.sqrt(1 - x**2)

    >>> from scipy.interpolate import BSpline, make_interp_spline
    >>> b = make_interp_spline(x, y)
    >>> np.allclose(b(x), y)
    True

    Note that the default is a cubic spline with a not-a-knot boundary condition

    >>> b.k
    3

    Here we use a 'natural' spline, with zero 2nd derivatives at edges:

    >>> l, r = [(2, 0.0)], [(2, 0.0)]
    >>> b_n = make_interp_spline(x, y, bc_type=(l, r))  # or, bc_type="natural"
    >>> np.allclose(b_n(x), y)
    True
    >>> x0, x1 = x[0], x[-1]
    >>> np.allclose([b_n(x0, 2), b_n(x1, 2)], [0, 0])
    True

    Interpolation of parametric curves is also supported. As an example, we
    compute a discretization of a snail curve in polar coordinates

    >>> phi = np.linspace(0, 2.*np.pi, 40)
    >>> r = 0.3 + np.cos(phi)
    >>> x, y = r*np.cos(phi), r*np.sin(phi)  # convert to Cartesian coordinates

    Build an interpolating curve, parameterizing it by the angle

    >>> from scipy.interpolate import make_interp_spline
    >>> spl = make_interp_spline(phi, np.c_[x, y])

    Evaluate the interpolant on a finer grid (note that we transpose the result
    to unpack it into a pair of x- and y-arrays)

    >>> phi_new = np.linspace(0, 2.*np.pi, 100)
    >>> x_new, y_new = spl(phi_new).T

    Plot the result

    >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    >>> plt.plot(x, y, 'o')
    >>> plt.plot(x_new, y_new, '-')
    >>> plt.show()

    w : array_like, shape (n,), optional

        Default is True.

    Returns
    -------
    b : a BSpline object of the degree `k` with knots `t`.

    Notes
    -----

    The number of data points must be larger than the spline degree `k`.

    Knots `t` must satisfy the Schoenberg-Whitney conditions,
    i.e., there must be a subset of data points ``x[j]`` such that
    ``t[j] < x[j] < t[j+k+1]``, for ``j=0, 1,...,n-k-2``.

    Examples
    --------
    Generate some noisy data:

    >>> x = np.linspace(-3, 3, 50)
    >>> y = np.exp(-x**2) + 0.1 * np.random.randn(50)

    Now fit a smoothing cubic spline with a pre-defined internal knots.
    Here we make the knot vector (k+1)-regular by adding boundary knots:

    >>> from scipy.interpolate import make_lsq_spline, BSpline
    >>> t = [-1, 0, 1]
    >>> k = 3
    >>> t = np.r_[(x[0],)*(k+1),
    ...           t,
    ...           (x[-1],)*(k+1)]
    >>> spl = make_lsq_spline(x, y, t, k)

    For comparison, we also construct an interpolating spline for the same
    set of data:

    >>> from scipy.interpolate import make_interp_spline
    >>> spl_i = make_interp_spline(x, y)

    Plot both:

    >>> import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    >>> xs = np.linspace(-3, 3, 100)
    >>> plt.plot(x, y, 'ro', ms=5)
    >>> plt.plot(xs, spl(xs), 'g-', lw=3, label='LSQ spline')
    >>> plt.plot(xs, spl_i(xs), 'b-', lw=3, alpha=0.7, label='interp spline')
    >>> plt.legend(loc='best')
    >>> plt.show()

    **NaN handling**: If the input arrays contain ``nan`` values, the result is
    not useful since the underlying spline fitting routines cannot deal with
    ``nan``. A workaround is to use zero weights for not-a-number data points:

    >>> y[8] = np.nan
    >>> w = np.isnan(y)
    >>> y[w] = 0.
    >>> tck = make_lsq_spline(x, y, t, w=~w)

    Notice the need to replace a ``nan`` by a numerical value (precise value
    does not matter as long as the corresponding weight is zero.)
