Function tape draw tapes which rotate around the curve as normal and binormal. The sample code is:
int sample(mglGraph *gr) { mglData y; mgls_prepare1d(&y); mglData xc(50), yc(50), z(50); yc.Modify("sin(pi*(2*x-1))"); xc.Modify("cos(pi*2*x-pi)"); z.Fill(-1,1); gr->SubPlot(2,2,0,""); gr->Title("Tape plot (default)"); gr->Box(); gr->Tape(y); gr->Plot(y,"k"); gr->SubPlot(2,2,1); gr->Title("3d variant, 2 colors"); gr->Rotate(50,60); gr->Light(true); gr->Box(); gr->Plot(xc,yc,z,"k"); gr->Tape(xc,yc,z,"rg"); gr->SubPlot(2,2,2); gr->Title("3d variant, x only"); gr->Rotate(50,60); gr->Box(); gr->Plot(xc,yc,z,"k"); gr->Tape(xc,yc,z,"xr"); gr->Tape(xc,yc,z,"xr#"); gr->SubPlot(2,2,3); gr->Title("3d variant, z only"); gr->Rotate(50,60); gr->Box(); gr->Plot(xc,yc,z,"k"); gr->Tape(xc,yc,z,"zg"); gr->Tape(xc,yc,z,"zg#"); return 0; }
