Planar parametric cubics are used to model curves, both by themselves, and as segments of splines. This paper provides first a background in the algebraic curve theory of cubics; specifically, double points, inflection points, tangent lines, standard curves, and slope parametrizations are discussed. The parametric cubics are discussed in this context. Topics such as the inverse problem, the implicit equation, etc. are included.
