plottools[rectangle] - generate 2-D plot object for a rectangle

 Calling Sequence rectangle([x1, y1], [x2, y2], options)

Parameters

 [x1, y1] - top left corner of the rectangle [x2, y2] - bottom right corner of the rectangle options - (optional) equations of the form option=value. For a complete list, see plot/options.

Description

 • The rectangle command creates a two-dimensional plot data object, which when displayed is a rectangle whose top left corner is located at [x1,y1] and the bottom right corner is located at [x2,y2].
 • The plot data object produced by the rectangle command can be used in a PLOT data structure, or displayed using the plots[display] command.
 • Remaining arguments are interpreted as options, which are specified as equations of the form option = value. For more information, see plottools and plot/options.
