Hi, Consider following code:
vardef polygon_with_side(expr n, s) = save a, b, r; numeric a, b, r; a * n = 360; a + 2b = 180; r = s * sind(b) / sind(a); for i = 0 upto n-1: (0, r) rotated (a * i) -- endfor cycle enddef; beginfig(1); path p; p = polygon_with_side(21, 20); draw p; endfig; bye; It draws a polygon with 21 sides with radius 20. I understand all of it except the for loop. What is (0, r) rotated (a *i) doing? -- Respect, Shiv Shankar Dayal ___________________________________________________________________________________ If your question is of interest to others as well, please add an entry to the Wiki! maillist : ntg-context@ntg.nl / https://mailman.ntg.nl/mailman3/lists/ntg-context.ntg.nl webpage : https://www.pragma-ade.nl / https://context.aanhet.net (mirror) archive : https://github.com/contextgarden/context wiki : https://wiki.contextgarden.net ___________________________________________________________________________________
