Maxima Graphic object
parametric (xfun,yfun,par,parmin,parmax)
parametric(xfun,yfun,zfun,par,parmin,parmax)
Draws parametric functions in 2D and 3D.
This object is affected by the following graphic options: nticks
,
line_width
, line_type
, key
and color
.
2D
parametric (xfun,yfun,par,parmin,parmax)
plots parametric function
[xfun,yfun]
, with parameter par taking values from
parmin to parmax.
Example:
(%i1) load(draw)$ (%i2) draw2d(explicit(exp(x),x,-1,3), color = red, key = "This is the parametric one!!", parametric(2*cos(rrr),rrr^2,rrr,0,2*%pi))$
3D
parametric (xfun,yfun,zfun,par,parmin,parmax)
plots parametric curve
[xfun,yfun,zfun]
, with parameter par taking values from
parmin to parmax.
Example:
