xpoly - draw a polyline or a polygon

Calling Sequence

xpoly(xv,yv [,dtype [,close]])

Parameters

• xv,yv : matrices of the same size (points of the polyline).
• dtype : string (drawing style). default value is "lines".
• close : integer. If close=1, the polyline is closed; default value is 0.

Description

xpoly draws a single polyline described by the vectors of coordinates xv and yv. If xv and yv are matrices they are considered as vectors by concatenating their columns. dtype can be "lines" for using the current line style or "marks" for using the current mark to draw the polyline.

Examples

x=sin(2*%pi*(0:5)/5);
y=cos(2*%pi*(0:5)/5);
plot2d(0,0,-1,"010"," ",[-2,-2,2,2])
xset("color",5)
xpoly(x,y,"lines",1)
xset("default")
