plots

 multiple
 Plot multiple functions

 Calling Sequence multiple(plotcommand, plotargs1, ..., plotargsn, options)

Parameters

 plotcommand - plot command to apply plotargs1, ..., plotargsn - list of arguments to the plot command options - (optional) plot options

Description

 • The multiple command builds a composite plot.
 • The parameter plotcommand is a Maple plotting command, applied to the plot arguments plotargsi.
 • Each parameter plotargsi is a list of arguments for plotcommand, the plotting command.  To plot the sine function for two different frequencies, you can use:
 > plots[multiple]( plot, [sin(2*x), x=-Pi..Pi], [sin(3*x), x=-Pi..Pi] );
 • The remaining arguments to the multiple command are interpreted as options.  They are equations of the form option = value, and are passed on to the plots[display] command.

Examples

 > $\mathrm{with}\left(\mathrm{plots}\right):$
 > $\mathrm{multiple}\left(\mathrm{plot3d},\left[x+y,x=0..1,y=0..1\right],\left[1,t=0..1,u=0..1\right]\right)$
