plot::polar -- generate plots in polar coordinates

Introduction

plot::polar([f1, f2], phi = pmin..pmax) represents a plot of the curve defined by phi -> (f1(phi); f2(phi)) with phi in [pmin,pmax] in polar coordinates.

Call(s)

plot::polar([f1, f2], phi = pmin..pmax <, option1, option2>...)

Parameters

f1, f2 - arithmetical expressions in phi
phi - identifier (the angle)
pmin, pmax - arithmetical expressions
option1, option2, ... - plot option(s) for two-dimensional graphical objects

Returns

a graphical object of the domain type plot::Curve2d.

Related Functions

plot2d, plot::spherical, plot::cylindrical

Details

Example 1

>> delete phi:
   c:= plot::polar([phi, phi], phi = [0, 4*PI], Grid = [100])
        plot::Curve2d([phi cos(phi), phi sin(phi)], phi = 0..4 PI)
>> plot(c, Axes = None)
