+   * Produces a builder that can be used to fluently build a curve. A Curve will always be continuous (And should
+   * move in a positive X direction) but the gradient may change sharply.
+   *
+   * It is a series of anchor points connected either by straight line sections or cubic Bézier-like curves (defined by
+   * 2 control points). They are bezier-like curves not Bézier curves because of the requirement that X (often
+   * representing time) can only be allowed to move forward
+   *
+   * In normal usage the first anchor point should be at x = 0, all further points should advance in the X axis and
+   * the final anchor point should have x at 1. This is because usually X is the fractional life of the particle
+   *
+   * Example usage:
+   *
+   * <pre>{@code
+   *     Curve curve = Curve.builder()
+   *             .anchorPoint(new Vector2f(0,0))
+   *             .anchorPoint(new Vector2f(0.5f,0.5f))

+   * This example produces a straight line from (0,0) to (0.5,0.5), then a cubic Besier curves between (0.5,0.5) to (1,2) with control points (0.6,0.5) and (0.8,2)
