In most cases, the difference between Bezier curves and cubic splines is
minimal. An example where the difference is noticeable is

David Braden has posted code for cubic splines, but Google changed their
addressing and my saved link is now broken. You might find it by searching.

I have a set of data points, ie. x = 1,2,3,4,5,6 corresponding with
y=4,17,18,22,15,7

I want a cell that will work out the expected value for y for any value (ie.
x=3.3, y=?) when the x value is provided to it from another cell. I want to
be able to change that input cell and automatically recalculate the new value
of y.

I need some kind of routines that finds the data points either side of the
required value and interpolate between them. How do I make this routine and
carry out the interpolation?
