This routine zero-pads the coefficients array ``c`` to have the same length as the array of knots ``t`` (the trailing ``k + 1`` coefficients are ignored by the evaluation routines, `splev` and `BSpline`.) This is in contrast with `splprep`, which does not zero-pad the coefficients. The default boundary condition is 'not-a-knot', i.e. the first and second segment at a curve end are the same polynomial.
