Our intention is to provide an elementary and directly applicable introduction to the computation of those (as simple as possible) spline functions, which are determined by the requirement of smooth and shape-preserving interpolation and (in two cases) the smoothing of measured or collected data.
This is the continuation of "One Dimensional Spline Interpolation Algorithms" to two dimensions as mentioned in the postscript to that book. We again take the point of view that the nodes (only in the plane) and the values to be interpolated are fixed ahead of time and that no information on a a possible underlying function is available.
