It does not 'fit a b_spline to an an arbitrary number of points'. I should be very interested to know of any code that does take a set of data points and with the minimum amount of operator intervention (eg specification of order of curve and number of vertices allowed) generates the vertex coordinates of the b_spline curve that best fits the data.
