Abstract
Abstract A simple, closed-form expression is derived for a linear smoothing spline. Examples are given of how this can be used as a pedagogical tool to help students understand the properties of smoothing splines and compare them with other nonparametric estimators.

Kernel and nearest-neighbor regression estimators are local versions of univariate location estimators, and so they can readily be introduced to beginning students and consulting clients who are familiar with such summaries as the sample mean and median.
