[Up: aximate]

curve

aximate also allows to move curves from one shape to another. The curves are parametrized as (x($t),y($t)), where the parameter $t ∈ [0,1]. A simple example is
curve({"function" => [['100*$t','50*sin(pi*$t)'],
         	      ['100*$t','-50*sin(pi*$t)']]},
      {"function" => ['$t','$t**2']});
Note that you can use evolution functions here as well.

A curve in aximate is actually a polygon of many points. The number of these points is determined by the option npoints.


Options

	"function" => [['100*sin(2*pi*$t)',
			'100*cos(2*pi*$t)'],
		       ['50*cos(8*pi*$t)',
			'50*sin(8*pi*$t)']],
	"npoints" => 100,
	"color" => "Red",
	"width" => [[2]]
