 Returns a uniform nonrational B-spline interpolator through the specified array of *values*, which must be numbers. The control points are implicitly repeated such that the resulting one-dimensional spline has cyclical C² continuity when repeated around *t* in [0,1]. See also [d3.curveBasisClosed](https://github.com/d3/d3-shape#curveBasisClosed).

+
+Returns a piecewise interpolator, composing interpolators for each adjacent pair of *values*. The returned interpolator maps *t* in [0, 1 / (*n* - 1)] to *interpolate*(*values*[0], *values*[1]), *t* in [1 / (*n* - 1), 2 / (*n* - 1)] to *interpolate*(*values*[1], *values*[2]), and so on, where *n* = *values*.length. In effect, this is a lightweight [linear scale](https://github.com/d3/d3-scale/blob/master/README.md#linear-scales). For example, to blend through red, green and blue:
+
+```js
+var interpolate = d3.piecewise(d3.interpolateRgb.gamma(2.2), ["red", "green", "blue"]);
+```
