Geometry
The Graphics command generates all kinds of 2D shapes:
Out[1]= | |
Many geometric objects take a series of coordinates (lists) as arguments:
Out[2]= | |
Pass in a list with directives to combine graphics and change their styles:
Out[3]= | |
Generate triangles with commands like SASTriangle:
(Type ESCdegESC for the °
symbol.)
Out[1]= | |
Properties like area can be computed directly:
Out[2]= | |
Pass this expression into Graphics:
Out[3]= | |
Similarly, you can use Graphics3D to display 3D objects:
Out[1]= | |
Calculate volume and other properties:
(With no arguments given, a cylinder has a radius of 1 and a height of 2.)
Out[2]= | |
You can also find formulas and other information using natural-language input:
Out[3]= | |
