Abstract
This paper discusses a solution to the problem of how to approximate an algebraic curve of any degree with piecewise parametric curves. The approximation can be performed using any differentiable parametric curve form. An implementation using rational cubic Bezier curves results in a G 2 piecewise approximation which experiences better than O(h 7) convergence. If the algebraic curve happens to be a cubic curve of genus zero, a parametric curve can be found which exactly fits the given algebraic curve to within floating point precision. An error bound is developed which is much tighter than previously published bounds.
