    * Spline curves can form shapes and curves that slope gently. They’re like
-   * cables that are attached to a set of points. Splines are defined by two
-   * anchor points and two control points.
-   *
-   * The first two parameters, `x1` and `y1`, set the first control point. This
-   * point isn’t drawn and can be thought of as the curve’s starting point.
-   *
-   * The next four parameters, `x2`, `y2`, `x3`, and `y3`, set the two anchor
-   * points. The anchor points are the start and end points of the curve’s
-   * visible segment.
-   *
-   * The seventh and eighth parameters, `x4` and `y4`, set the last control
-   * point. This point isn’t drawn and can be thought of as the curve’s ending
-   * point.
+   * cables that are attached to a set of points. By default (`ends: INCLUDE`),
+   * the curve passes through all four points you provide, in order
+   * `p0(x1,y1)` -> `p1(x2,y2)` -> `p2(x3,y3)` -> `p3(x4,y4)`. Think of them as 
+   * points on a curve. If you switch to `ends: EXCLUDE`, p0 and p3 act
+   * like control points and only the middle span `p1->p2` is drawn.
    *
    * Spline curves can also be drawn in 3D using WebGL mode. The 3D version of
    * `spline()` has twelve arguments because each point has x-, y-, and
    * z-coordinates.
