Argument
- indep_vec
- The independent vector.
- dep_vec

Comments
The length of the curve is an approximation derived from the sum of the lengths of successive line segments whose begin- and endpoints are on the curve. The shorter the lengths of the individual line segments, the more accurate the approximation.
