Creates the interpolation function to a SpotRateCurve object.

# S4 method for FlatForwardCOPOM,SpotRateCurve
prepare_interpolation(object, x, ...)

Arguments

object

a Interpolation object.

x

a SpotRateCurve object.

...

additional arguments. Currently unused.

This method is used internally when the interpolation is set to a curve. It uses the current state of the curve to build the interpolation function. This is similar to call `approxfun` and `splinefun` to create functions that perform interpolation of the given data points.

This method shouldn't be directly called, it is for internal use only.

Value

A `FlatForwardCOPOM` object.
