How do I rotate an airfoil points? I have all the new chord lengths and the angles in which are needed to rotate. I need to plot all these airfoils 16 times together in respect to their new angle and chord length. I know I need a sort of for loop but evetrytime I plot, the figure is funky looking.
HELP ME PLEASE!!!
NEW Chord lengths and twist angle, R vaules

Does this look better?
Some (small) changes to your code. I swapped your rotation direction to better follow your example plot. Probably not a good idea to call a variable angle.

Thank you David! plot works fine. But how would i get it to plot with new chord lenght values?

Like this?
I've rotated each of your 16 profiles by the corresponding 16 angles. I assume this is what you want. By the way, you do have a chord length of zero! Seems a bit strange.
I've rotated the aerofoils about 1/4 chord length of the actual chord. Looking at your plot above, I see that you have probably rotated about the point 1/4 max chord length. It's an easy change to make if that's what you want.
I've also lightly coloured the foils to make them look nicer.
Code is now as below. I've added a structure to contain each of the profiles. This could be in a rectangular matrix, but you might in the future want to add other fields. (BTW, I typically use English spelling, simply to piss some people off.)
