Many thanks to Daniele Nicolodi for pointing me to the Wikipedia article on Bézier curves. Said article gives two formulae for the Bézier curve of degree n: one explicit, one recursive. Using numpy.polynomial.Polynomial as the base class, and its evaluation method for the evaluation in each dimension, which approach is likely to be faster for evaluation at parameter t? Does it depend on the degree, i.e., one approach will likely be faster for low degree while the other will likely be faster for higher degree? Thanks!
