Polar Coordinate Plot (Matlab Style)
The polar function accepts polar coordinates, plots them in a Cartesian plane, and draws the polar grid on the plane.
polar(t, r, type="l",
col = "blue", grcol = "darkgrey", bxcol = "black",
main = "Polar Plot", add = FALSE, ...)t, r |
vectors specifying angle and radius. |
type |
type of the plot, lines, points, or no plotting. |
col |
color of the graph. |
grcol, bxcol |
color of grid anf box around the plot. |
main |
plot title. |
add |
logical; if true, the graph will be plotted into the coordinate system of an existing plot. |
... |
plotting parameters to be passed to the |
polar(theta,rho) creates a polar coordinate plot of the angle
theta versus the radius rho. theta is the angle
from the x-axis to the radius vector specified in radians; rho
is the length of the radius vector.
Generates a plot; no returns.
