bezierplot
package.

License type: lppl1.3c
Summary description: bezierplot approximates smooth function graphs with cubic bezier splines in order to be used with
TikZ or MetaPost
Announcement text:
bezierplot is a Lua program as well as a (Lua)LaTeX package. Given a smooth function, bezierplot returns a smooth bezier path written in TikZ notation (which also matches METAPOST) that approximates the graph of the function. For polynomial functions of degree <= 3 and inverses of them, the approximation is exact (up to numeric precision). bezierplot finds special points such as extreme points and inflection points and reduces the number of used points.

bezierplot – Approximate smooth function graphs with cubic bezier splines for use with TikZ or METAPOST
This package consists of a Lua program as well as a (Lua)LaTeX .sty file.
Given a smooth function, bezierplot returns a smooth bezier path written in TikZ notation (which also matches METAPOST) that approximates the graph of the function. For polynomial functions of degree ≤ 3 and their inverses the approximation is exact (up to numeric precision).
bezierplot also finds special points such as extreme points and inflection points and reduces the number of used points.
