I was solving the issue #6618, but I could not find the part of the source code where doc-string of scipy.interpolate.splprep is written. Can someone please point me out where I can find the doc-string?

It's here: https://github.com/scipy/scipy/blob/master/scipy/interpolate/fitpack.py#L15 There are several ways to find out where the source code is. In IPython, do "interpolate.splprep??" - that will work for all Python code. For compiled code, you can use grep or grin to search through all files in the repo. Ralf
