MuPAD ... Graphics


MuPAD has an interactive graphic interface (called vcam) to create and manipulate 2D and 3D scenes. Graphics can be saved as GIF-images, Postscript-images or in special MuPAD formats. We're also working on a filmtool to animate them. The following examples were made with vcam.

Graphic primitives

Graphics can be build up on graphic primitives like points, polygones and colour-filled triangles by putting them in a list. This espacially allows turtle graphics and other plots discret objects.

2D-Graphics

2D graphic scenes may be consist of serveral 2D-objects of different colours, line styles and with different titles. Colours may be defined flat, corresponding to the hight (z-axis) of an object or by a user defined colour-function.

3D-Graphics

3D graphic scenes may be consist of serveral 3D-objects of different colours, line and surface styles and with different titles. Colours may be defined flat, corresponding to the hight (z-axis) of an object or by a user defined colour-function. Surfaces may be displayed as colour patches or transparent. Also wireframe models (hiddenline) can be plotted.
