Summary

Function: float fCos( rotation H, float t );

Catmull-Rom cubic interpolation spline of four floats with fraction t.
Returns a float

• rotation H The four floats are stored in a compact rotation format.
• float t

Specification

A bit more optimised:
float fCatmullRom(rotation H, float t) {
    rotation ABCD = <
        (H.x *-0.5) + (H.y * 1.5) + (H.z *-1.5) + (H.s * 0.5),
        (H.x * 1.0) + (H.y *-2.5) + (H.z * 2.0) + (H.s *-0.5),
        (H.x *-0.5) + (H.z * 0.5), (H.y * 1.0)
    >;
    rotation T; T.s = 1.0; T.z = t; T.y = T.z*T.z; T.x = T.y*T.z;
    return T.x*ABCD.x + T.y*ABCD.y + T.z*ABCD.z + T.s*ABCD.s;
}
