11.130 Sample ‘tape

Function tape draw tapes which rotate around the curve as transverse orts of accompanied coordinates.

MGL code:

call 'prepare1d'
new yc 50 'sin(pi*x)':new xc 50 'cos(pi*x)':new z 50 'x'
subplot 2 2 0 '':title 'Tape plot (default)':box:tape y:plot y 'k'
subplot 2 2 1:title '3d variant, 2 colors':rotate 50 60:light on
box:plot xc yc z 'k':tape xc yc z 'rg'
subplot 2 2 2:title '3d variant, x only':rotate 50 60
box:plot xc yc z 'k':tape xc yc z 'xr':tape xc yc z 'xr#'
subplot 2 2 3:title '3d variant, z only':rotate 50 60
box:plot xc yc z 'k':tape xc yc z 'zg':tape xc yc z 'zg#'

C++ code:

void smgl_tape(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);
	if(big!=3)	{	gr->SubPlot(2,2,0,"");	gr->Title("Tape plot (default)");	}
	gr->Box();	gr->Tape(y);	gr->Plot(y,"k");
	if(big==3)	return;
	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#");
