Please help me to produce smoothed contour plots.
I have dependent data generated at regular intervals of two independent
variables and would like to produce smoothed contour plots - I cannot get
interp (alima) to produce cubic interpolations of the data, only linear
ones. I'm interested in smoothing as the data generation process is
stochastic and produces small variations which I'd rather 'smooth'
away. I
cannot spot what is different about my data from the examples in (akima)
which prevents this working.
here is an example of my data:> x
