filled : true or false

Specifies whether to fill the inside of the arc. The default is false.

numpoints : positive integer

Specifies the number of points to evaluate. The default is 50.

super = positive real or list of two positive reals

Specifies that a (generalized) superelliptic arc should be created. See plottools[ellipse] for more details on generalized superellipses.

The ellipticArc command creates a two-dimensional plot data object, which when displayed is an elliptic arc of an ellipse centered at c with major a and minor b.  The arc ranges in r.

The plot data object produced by the ellipticArc 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.

The plottools[ellipticArc] command was updated in Maple 2019.

The super option was introduced in Maple 2019.
