Spiral Curve
Purpose
The Spiral Curve function in this web app is used to generate a graphical representation of a spiral curve based on user-defined parameters.
Use Cases
This function can be used to visualize and study the shape of a spiral curve. It can be helpful for educational purposes, engineering designs, or simply for artistic exploration.
How to Use
- Enter the values for the parameters in the input fields below.
- Click on the "Generate Spiral Curve" button to see the graphical representation of the spiral curve.
Input Values
- Number of Spirals: Number of spirals to be generated (default is 4).
- Parameter A: Controls the size and shape of the spiral curve.
- Parameter B: Controls the rate of expansion of the spiral curve.
Output Values
- Chart: Graphical representation of the spiral curve.
Any other Instruction
For best results, try adjusting the parameters A and B to see how they affect the shape of the spiral curve.
Steps of Calculation
- Generate an array of theta values.
- Calculate the x and y coordinates for each point on the spiral curve.
- Fill the area enclosed by the curve to create a visual representation.
- Convert the generated chart to a base64 encoded image for display.
