fpolarplot
Syntax
Description
fpolarplot(
plots the curve defined by the
expression or function f
)r = f(theta)
in polar coordinates over the default
interval 0 ≤ theta ≤ 2π
.
fpolarplot(___,
specifies
the line style, marker symbol, and line color. For example, LineSpec
)"-r"
plots a
solid red line. Use this option after any of the input argument combinations in the previous
syntaxes.
fpolarplot(___,
specifies line properties using one or more name-value arguments. For example,
Name=Value
)LineWidth=2
specifies a line width of 2 points.
fpolarplot(
plots into the
pax
,___)PolarAxes
object specified by pax
instead of the
current axes (gca
).
returns a
fp
= fpolarplot(___)FunctionLine
object. Use the object to query and modify properties of
the plotted line. For a list of properties, see FunctionLine Properties.
Examples
Polar Plot of Expression
Create a polar plot of the expression over the interval .
f = @(t) 1 + cos(t); fpolarplot(f)
Specify Plotting Interval
Plot over the interval by specifying the plotting interval as the second input to fpolarplot
.
f = @(t) t.^2; fpolarplot(f,[-2*pi 2*pi])
Plot Negative Radius Values
Create a polar plot using negative radius values. By default, fpolarplot
reflects negative values through the origin.
f = @(t) sin(t); fpolarplot(f)
Change the limits of the -axis so it ranges from –1 to 1.
rlim([-1 1])
Change Line Properties
Plot three curves in polar coordinates. Use a dash-dotted line for the first curve, a dashed line with a line width of 2 for the second curve, and a solid blue line for the third curve.
fpolarplot(@(t) t.^(1/4),"-.") hold on fpolarplot(@(t) t.^(2/3),"--",LineWidth=2) fpolarplot(@(t) t,"-b") legend hold off
Modify Polar Plot After Creation
Plot the curve in polar coordinates, and return the function line object.
f = @(t) sin(2*t).*cos(2*t); fp = fpolarplot(f)
fp = FunctionLine with properties: Function: @(t)sin(2*t).*cos(2*t) Color: [0 0.4470 0.7410] LineStyle: '-' LineWidth: 0.5000 Use GET to show all properties
You can access and modify properties of the function line object by using dot notation. For example, change the color, line style, and line width.
fp.Color = "r"; fp.LineStyle = ":"; fp.LineWidth = 2;
Input Arguments
f
— Function to plot
function handle
Function to plot, specified as a function handle to a named or anonymous function.
Specify a function of the form r = f(theta)
. The function must
accept a vector input argument and return a vector output argument of the same size. Use
array operators instead of matrix operators for the best performance. For example, use
.*
(times
) instead of *
(mtimes
).
Example: fpolarplot(@(theta) theta.*sin(theta))
plots
theta.*sin(theta)
over the default interval, [0
2*pi]
.
[a b]
— Interval for polar angle
[0 2*pi]
(default) | two-element vector of form [a b]
Interval for the polar angle theta
, specified as a two-element
vector of the form [a b]
. fpolarplot
plots over
the specified interval a ≤ theta ≤ b
.
pax
— PolarAxes
object
PolarAxes
object
PolarAxes
object. You can modify the appearance and behavior of a
PolarAxes
object by setting its properties. For a
list of properties, see PolarAxes Properties.
LineSpec
— Line style, marker, and color
string scalar | character vector
Line style, marker, and color, specified as a string scalar or character vector containing symbols. The symbols can appear in any order. You do not need to specify all three characteristics (line style, marker, and color). For example, if you omit the line style and specify the marker, then the plot shows only the marker and no line.
Example: "--or"
is a red dashed line with circle markers.

Name-Value Arguments
Specify optional pairs of arguments as
Name1=Value1,...,NameN=ValueN
, where Name
is
the argument name and Value
is the corresponding value.
Name-value arguments must appear after other arguments, but the order of the
pairs does not matter.

Color
— Line color
[0 0.4470 0.7410]
(default) | RGB triplet | hexadecimal color code | "r"
| "g"
| "b"
| ...
Line color, specified as an RGB triplet, a hexadecimal color code, a color name, or a short name.
For a custom color, specify an RGB triplet or a hexadecimal color code.
An RGB triplet is a three-element row vector whose elements specify the intensities of the red, green, and blue components of the color. The intensities must be in the range
[0,1]
, for example,[0.4 0.6 0.7]
.A hexadecimal color code is a string scalar or character vector that starts with a hash symbol (
#
) followed by three or six hexadecimal digits, which can range from0
toF
. The values are not case sensitive. Therefore, the color codes"#FF8800"
,"#ff8800"
,"#F80"
, and"#f80"
are equivalent.
Alternatively, you can specify some common colors by name. This table lists the named color options, the equivalent RGB triplets, and hexadecimal color codes.
Color Name | Short Name | RGB Triplet | Hexadecimal Color Code | Appearance |
---|---|---|---|---|
"red" | "r" | [1 0 0] | "#FF0000" | |
"green" | "g" | [0 1 0] | "#00FF00" | |
"blue" | "b" | [0 0 1] | "#0000FF" | |
"cyan"
| "c" | [0 1 1] | "#00FFFF" | |
"magenta" | "m" | [1 0 1] | "#FF00FF" | |
