摘要
Curves are commonly drawn by piecewise linear interpolation, but to worry about the error is rather seldom. In the present paper we give a strong mathematical error analysis for curve segments with bounded curvature and length. Though the result seems very clear, the proof turned out to be unexpectedly hard, comparable to that of the famous four vertex theorem.
