        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 datapoints in x, y, and w.
    k : int, optional
        Degree of the spline.  Cubic splines are recommended.  Even
        values of k should be avoided especially with a small s-value.
        for the same set of data.  If task=-1 find the weighted least
        square spline for a given set of knots, t.
    nest : None or int, optional
        An over-estimate of the total number of knots of the spline to
        help in determining the storage space.  None results in value
        m+2*k. -1 results in m+k+1. Always large enough is nest=m+k+1.
        Default is -1.
