Some derivatives of the spline function may also be continuous, depending on whether the knots are distinct or not.
Spline interpolation uses low-degree polynomials in each of the intervals, and chooses the polynomial pieces such that they fit smoothly together.
The key property of spline functions is that they are continuous at the knots.
