+The Interpolate command fills in any gaps in a signal's data using a spline interpolation. This can be useful if there are unreliable data points ([[visual3d:documentation:c3d_signal_types:target_data_type#target_marker_residuals|residuals]] < 0).
-If there are unreliable data points (residuals < 0) in any signal it is possible to interpolate these gaps in the data using a spline interpolation.
-===== Visual3D Version 4 =====
 The interpolation procedure performs a least-squares fit of an nth order polynomial to k data points.
-|(x1,t1),...,(xk,tk)|k >= polynomial order + 1||
+<code>
+|(x1,t1),...,(xk,tk)|k >= polynomial order + 1|

+The command is given in text form as:

-==== Using an expression in Version 4 ====
-This is considerable more klunky because it requires 3 commands instead of 1:
-**Evaluate_Expression**
-/EXPRESSION=0.1*PARAMETERS::POINT::RATE
-/RESULT_NAME=RATE
-/RESULT_TYPE=METRIC
-/RESULT_FOLDER=TEMP
