Equivalent of matlabs interp2 spline in scipy/numpy

Question

I am currently converting our matlab code base to python 3.5 with scipy/numpy.

The line i am currently struggling with contains the interp2 function with spline as the method. I generally am able to find the counterpart in the world of scipy, but the description of the spline method is too much for me

The interpolation is based on a cubic spline using not-a-knot end conditions.

What interpolate method from scipy/numpy should I use to get the same effect?

Answer 1

I suggest splrep . scipy.interpolate.splrep(x,y,k=3,task=-1) seems to do the same job. interp2d is a wrapper with less parameters.
