plotAddPolar#

Purpose#

Adds a graph using polar coordinates to an existing polar graph.

Format#

plotAddPolar([myPlot, ]radius, theta)#

Parameters:

myPlot (struct) – Optional argument. A plotControl structure.
radius (Nx1 or NxM matrix) – Each column contains the magnitude for a particular line.
theta (Nx1 or NxM matrix) – Each column represents the angle values for a particular line.

Remarks#

plotAddPolar() may only add curves to 2-D graphs.

This function will not change any of the current graph’s settings other than to resize the view as necessary to display the new curve.

Examples#

// Create angle values
theta = seqa(0, 0.1, 63);

// Plot a circle with radius 2
r1 = ones(63, 1) * 2;
plotPolar(r1, theta);

// Add a cardioid curve to the same graph
r2 = 1 + cos(theta);
plotAddPolar(r2, theta);
