Class Detail
JXG.Math.ImplicitPlot(bbox, config, f, dfx, dfy)
Plotting of curves which are given implicitly as the set of points solving an equation f(x,y) = 0.

The main class initializes a new implicit plot instance.

The algorithm should be able to plot most implicit curves as long as the equations are not too complex. We are aware of the paper by Oliver Labs, A List of Challenges for Real Algebraic Plane Curve Visualization Software which contains many equations where this algorithm may fail. For example, at the time being there is no attempt to detect solitary points. Also, it is always a trade off to find all components of the curve and keep the construction responsive.

Parameters:
{Array} bbox
Bounding box of the area in which solutions of the equation are determined.


{Object} config
Configuration object. Default:

            ret = [],
            mgn = 1;

<private> traceComponent(u0)
Starting at an initial point the curve is traced with a Euler-Newton method. After tracing in one direction the algorithm stops if the component is a closed loop. Otherwise, the curved is traced in the opposite direction, starting from the same initial point. Finally, the two components are glued together.
Parameters:
{Array} u0
Initial point in homogenous coordinates [1, x, y].
Returns:
Array [dataX, dataY] containing a new component.

<private> tracing(u0, direction)
Starting at a point u0, this routine traces the curve f(u)=0 until a loop is detected, a critical point is reached, the curve leaves the bounding box, or the maximum number of points is reached.

The method is a predictor / corrector method consisting of Euler and Newton steps together with step width adaption.

The algorithm is an adaption of the algorithm in Eugene L. Allgower, Kurt Georg: Introduction to Numerical Continuation methods.

Parameters:
{Array} u0
Starting point in homogenous coordinates [1, x, y].

{Array} A
{Array} u0
{Array} u1
Returns:
