Disks

class sage.plot.disk.Disk(point, r, angle, options)

Bases: sage.plot.primitive.GraphicPrimitive

Primitive class for the Disk graphics type. See disk? for information about actually plotting a disk (the Sage term for a sector or wedge of a circle).

INPUT:

  • point - coordinates of center of Disk
  • r - radius of Disk object
  • angle - beginning and ending angles of Disk object (i.e. angle extent of sector/wedge)
  • options - dict of valid plot options to pass to constructor

EXAMPLES:

Note this should normally be used indirectly via disk:

sage: from sage.plot.disk import Disk
sage: D = Disk((1,2), 2, (pi/2,pi), {'zorder':3})
sage: D
Disk defined by (1.0,2.0) with r=2.0 spanning (1.57079632679, 3.14159265359) radians
sage: D.options()['zorder']
3
sage: D.x
1.0

TESTS:

We test creating a disk:

sage: D = disk((2,3), 2, (0,pi/2))
get_minmax_data()

Returns a dictionary with the bounding box data.

EXAMPLES:
sage: D = disk((5,4), 1, (pi/2, pi)) sage: d = D.get_minmax_data() sage: d[‘xmin’] 4.0 sage: d[‘ymin’] 3.0 sage: d[‘xmax’] 6.0 sage: d[‘ymax’] 5.0
plot3d(z=0, **kwds)

Plots a 2D disk (actually a 52-gon) in 3D, with default height zero.

INPUT:

  • z - optional 3D height above xy-plane.

AUTHORS:

  • Karl-Dieter Crisman (05-09)

EXAMPLES:

sage: disk((0,0), 1, (0, pi/2)).plot3d() sage: disk((0,0), 1, (0, pi/2)).plot3d(z=2) sage: disk((0,0), 1, (pi/2, 0), fill=False).plot3d(3)

These examples show that the appropriate options are passed:

sage: D = disk((2,3), 1, (pi/4,pi/3), hue=.8, alpha=.3, fill=True)
sage: d = D[0]
sage: d.plot3d(z=2).texture.opacity
0.300000000000000
::
sage: D = disk((2,3), 1, (pi/4,pi/3), hue=.8, alpha=.3, fill=False) sage: d = D[0] sage: dd = d.plot3d(z=2) sage: dd.jmol_repr(dd.testing_render_params())[0][-1] ‘color $line_4 translucent 0.7 [204,0,255]’
sage.plot.disk.disk(*args, **kwds)

A disk (that is, a sector or wedge of a circle) with center at a point = (x,y) (or (x,y,z) and parallel to the xy-plane) with radius = r spanning (in radians) angle=`(rad1, rad2)`.

Type disk.options to see all options.

EXAMPLES:

Make some dangerous disks:

sage: bl = disk((0.0,0.0), 1, (pi, 3*pi/2), color='yellow')
sage: tr = disk((0.0,0.0), 1, (0, pi/2), color='yellow')
sage: tl = disk((0.0,0.0), 1, (pi/2, pi), color='black')
sage: br = disk((0.0,0.0), 1, (3*pi/2, 2*pi), color='black')
sage: P  = tl+tr+bl+br
sage: P.show(aspect_ratio=1,xmin=-2,xmax=2,ymin=-2,ymax=2)

To correct the aspect ratio of certain graphics, it is necessary to show with a aspect_ratio of one:

sage: bl = disk((0.0,0.0), 1, (pi, 3*pi/2), color='yellow')
sage: bl.show(aspect_ratio=1)

You can also achieve the same aspect ratio by specifying a figsize with square dimensions:

sage: bl = disk((0.0,0.0), 1, (pi, 3*pi/2), rgbcolor=(1,1,0))
sage: bl.show(figsize=[5,5])

Note that since thickness defaults to zero, it is best to change that option when using fill=False:

sage: disk((2,3), 1, (pi/4,pi/3), hue=.8, alpha=.3, fill=False, thickness=2)

The previous two examples also illustrate using hue and rgbcolor as ways of specifying the color of the graphic.

We can also use this command to plot three-dimensional disks parallel to the xy-plane.

sage: d = disk((1,1,3), 1, (pi,3*pi/2), rgbcolor=(1,0,0)) sage: d sage: type(d) <type ‘sage.plot.plot3d.index_face_set.IndexFaceSet’>

Extra options will get passed on to show(), as long as they are valid:

sage: disk((0, 0), 5, (0, pi/2), xmin=0, xmax=5, ymin=0, ymax=5, figsize=(2,2), rgbcolor=(1, 0, 1))
sage: disk((0, 0), 5, (0, pi/2), rgbcolor=(1, 0, 1)).show(xmin=0, xmax=5, ymin=0, ymax=5, figsize=(2,2)) # These are equivalent

TESTS:

We cannot currently plot disks in more than three dimensions:

sage: d = disk((1,1,1,1), 1, (0,pi))
...
ValueError: The center point of a plotted disk should have two or three coordinates.
