    And so, here are four functions to demonstrate it. The default resolution of the plotting routine is crude, leading to #Aliasing and so the mesh has to be refined somewhat.

    Here are three #ConicSections and one #Trigonometric functions.

    An #Ellipse
    A #Parabola.
    A #Hyperbola.
    A rotating #Tangent function.

    I was explaining to my wife yesterday how #DifferentialCalculus gives us a way to find the #gradient of a #function at any point and to illustrate it I wrote a short routine in #Maxima to draw the #tangent to any point on a graph of a function. Here we see the example for the #quadratic and #reciprocal functions, x^2 and 1/x i.e. a #parabola and a #hyperbola respectively.
