Description

I found myself writing these too many times when doing any kind of signal mixing.

Splines, Erf, Normal Distributions (all sorts of temporal smoothing) could probably be implemented as static members.

Convolution is trickier - it could be a wrapper template for a container or to return a copy of it.

Submitting these two features together makes sense because of typical use cases they share.

Research direction

The issue names ofMath but no file, test, or entry point. First locate ofMath and review its existing math helpers, then clarify the proposed spline, Erf, normal-distribution, and convolution additions. Done means the intended functions and container behavior are agreed and covered by project tests.
