The next challenge is to write a conjunction hyperbola so that

a hyperbola b is a verb that creates complex numbers for both

branches of the hyperbola  y^2/a^2 - x^2/b^2 = 1  (opens up and

down not left and right) .  The command

     plot a hyperbola b [ c to d

  plots the hyperbola.  You have to work to move a stray

straight line to the edge of the plot.  Give it a try.


Verb "to" is

     to =: [ + -~ * 1r512 * [: i. 513"_

NB.  c to d  produces 513 equally spaced values from (real) c to d

Yes, that's better.

Very cool, Henry!  You can also use

     ellipse2 =: [: j./ ((cos ,: sin) 0 to 2p1) * ,

An advantage of complex number plots is they are easy to rotate and translate.  
Try

     plot (^&j. _1r4p1) * 2 ellipse 1  NB. rotates -45 degrees

Verb rather than conjunction:

   ellipse =: [: +.^:_1 ((cos ,. sin) 0 to 2p1) *"1 ,

If you just want to plot, you can leave the real/imaginary separate:

   ellipse2 =: ((cos ; sin) 0 to 2p1) *&.> ,

You can plot a complex list.

Try

L =: _1j1 0 1j1

and

plot L

plot 0j1 + L

plot 0j1 * L

(It is easy to translate and rotate a plot defined by a complex list.)


Challenge: devise a conjunction ellipse that produces a complex list for 
plotting the ellipse

1 = (*: x % a) + (*: y % b)   NB.  In algebra x^2/a^2 + y^2/b^2 = 1

The command

plot a ellipse b

should produce a plot of the above ellipse.


Easier: devise an adverb parabola that produces complex numbers for plotting 
the parabola

(*: x) = 4 * p * y

You want the command

plot p parabola c to d

to plot the above parabola for x in the interval from c to d.


Here is verb "to"

  to =: [ + -~ * 1r512 * [: i. 513"_

  NB. c to d produces 513 equally spaced values from (real) c to d
