+    Find the B-spline representation of an N-D curve.
+
+    .. legacy:: function
+
+        Specifically, we recommend using `make_splprep` in new code.
+
+    Given a list of N rank-1 arrays, `x`, which represent a curve in
+    N-dimensional space parametrized by `u`, find a smooth approximating
+    spline curve g(`u`). Uses the FORTRAN routine parcur from FITPACK.
+
+    Parameters
+    ----------
+    x : array_like
+        A list of sample vector arrays representing the curve.
+    w : array_like, optional
+        Strictly positive rank-1 array of weights the same length as `x[0]`.
+        The weights are used in computing the weighted least-squares spline
+        fit. If the errors in the `x` values have standard-deviation given by
+        the vector d, then `w` should be 1/d. Default is ``ones(len(x[0]))``.
+    u : array_like, optional
+        An array of parameter values. If not given, these values are
+        calculated automatically as ``M = len(x[0])``, where
+
+            v[0] = 0
+
+            v[i] = v[i-1] + distance(`x[i]`, `x[i-1]`)
+
+            u[i] = v[i] / v[M-1]
+
+    ub, ue : int, optional
+        The end-points of the parameters interval.  Defaults to
+        u[0] and u[-1].
+    k : int, optional
+        Degree of the spline. Cubic splines are recommended.
+        Even values of `k` should be avoided especially with a small s-value.
+        ``1 <= k <= 5``, default is 3.
+    task : int, optional
+        If task==0 (default), find t and c for a given smoothing factor, s.
+        If task==1, find t and c for another value of the smoothing factor, s.
+        There must have been a previous call with task=0 or task=1
+        for the same set of data.
+        If task=-1 find the weighted least square spline for a given set of
+        knots, t.
+    s : float, optional
+        A smoothing condition.  The amount of smoothness is determined by
+        satisfying the conditions: ``sum((w * (y - g))**2,axis=0) <= s``,
+        where g(x) is the smoothed interpolation of (x,y).  The user can
+        use `s` to control the trade-off between closeness and smoothness
+        of fit.  Larger `s` means more smoothing while smaller values of `s`
+        indicate less smoothing. Recommended values of `s` depend on the
+        weights, w.  If the weights represent the inverse of the
+        standard-deviation of y, then a good `s` value should be found in
+        the range ``(m-sqrt(2*m),m+sqrt(2*m))``, where m is the number of
+        data points in x, y, and w.
+    t : array, optional
+        The knots needed for ``task=-1``.
+        There must be at least ``2*k+2`` knots.
+    full_output : int, optional
+        If non-zero, then return optional outputs.
+    nest : int, optional
+        An over-estimate of the total number of knots of the spline to
+        help in determining the storage space.  By default nest=m/2.
+        Always large enough is nest=m+k+1.
+    per : int, optional
+       If non-zero, data points are considered periodic with period
+       ``x[m-1] - x[0]`` and a smooth periodic spline approximation is
+       returned.  Values of ``y[m-1]`` and ``w[m-1]`` are not used.
+    quiet : int, optional
+         Non-zero to suppress messages.
+
+    Returns
+    -------
+    tck : tuple
+        A tuple, ``(t,c,k)`` containing the vector of knots, the B-spline
+        coefficients, and the degree of the spline.
+    u : array
+        An array of the values of the parameter.
+    fp : float
+        The weighted sum of squared residuals of the spline approximation.
+    ier : int
+        An integer flag about splrep success.  Success is indicated
+        if ier<=0. If ier in [1,2,3] an error occurred but was not raised.
+        Otherwise an error is raised.
+    msg : str
+        A message corresponding to the integer flag, ier.

+
+    Notes
+    -----
+    See `splev` for evaluation of the spline and its derivatives.
+    The number of dimensions N must be smaller than 11.
+
+    The number of coefficients in the `c` array is ``k+1`` less than the number
+    of knots, ``len(t)``. This is in contrast with `splrep`, which zero-pads
+    the array of coefficients to have the same length as the array of knots.
+    These additional coefficients are ignored by evaluation routines, `splev`
+    and `BSpline`.

+
+    Notes
+    -----
+    See `splev` for evaluation of the spline and its derivatives. Uses the
+    FORTRAN routine ``curfit`` from FITPACK.
+
+    The user is responsible for assuring that the values of `x` are unique.
+    Otherwise, `splrep` will not return sensible results.
+
+    If provided, knots `t` must satisfy the Schoenberg-Whitney conditions,
+    i.e., there must be a subset of data points ``x[j]`` such that
+    ``t[j] < x[j] < t[j+k+1]``, for ``j=0, 1,...,n-k-2``.
+
+    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. More boundary conditions are
+    available in `CubicSpline`.

+    Examples
+    --------
+
+    For some data, this method may miss a root. This happens when one of
+    the spline knots (which FITPACK places automatically) happens to
+    coincide with the true root. A workaround is to convert to `PPoly`,
+    which uses a different root-finding algorithm.
+
+    For example,
+
+    >>> x = [1.96, 1.97, 1.98, 1.99, 2.00, 2.01, 2.02, 2.03, 2.04, 2.05]
+    >>> y = [-6.365470e-03, -4.790580e-03, -3.204320e-03, -1.607270e-03,
+    ...      4.440892e-16,  1.616930e-03,  3.243000e-03,  4.877670e-03,
+    ...      6.520430e-03,  8.170770e-03]
+    >>> from scipy.interpolate import splrep, sproot, PPoly
+    >>> tck = splrep(x, y, s=0)
+    >>> sproot(tck)
+    array([], dtype=float64)
+
+    Converting to a PPoly object does find the roots at ``x=2``:
+
+    >>> ppoly = PPoly.from_spline(tck)
+    >>> ppoly.roots(extrapolate=False)
+    array([2.])
