35  * Horner scheme for Bezier curves
36  *
37  * Bezier curves can be computed via a Horner scheme.
38  * Horner is numerically less stable than the de Casteljau
39  * algorithm, but it is faster. For curves of degree n
40  * the complexity of Horner is O(n) and de Casteljau is O(n^2).
41  * Since stability is not important for displaying curve
42  * points I decided to use the Horner scheme.
43  *
44  * A cubic Bezier curve with control points b0, b1, b2, b3 can be
45  * written as
46  *
47  *        (([3]        [3]     )     [3]       )     [3]
48  * c(t) = (([0]*s*b0 + [1]*t*b1)*s + [2]*t^2*b2)*s + [3]*t^2*b3
49  *
50  *                                           [n]
51  * where s=1-t and the binomial coefficients [i]. These can
52  * be computed iteratively using the identity:
53  *
54  * [n]               [n  ]             [n]
55  * [i] = (n-i+1)/i * [i-1]     and     [0] = 1

90  * must be multiplied with the (u2-u1)/uorder-1 and (v2-v1)/vorder-1.
