Description
|
|
•
|
The reflect command takes a plot structure or object and produces a new plot structure or object.
|
•
|
In the 2-D case, an object can be reflected with respect to either a given point or a given line.
|
•
|
In the 3-D case, an object can be reflected with respect to a point, a line, or a plane.
|
|
A point is represented as a list of either two real numbers (2-D) or three real numbers (3-D).
|
|
A line is represented as a list of two distinct points.
|
|
A plane is represented as a list of three distinct points.
|
•
|
The result of a call to reflect is a 2-D or 3-D plot structure or object, which may be displayed with the plots[display] command. You can assign the data structure to a variable, save it in a file, then read it back in for redisplay. For more information about plot data structures, see plot/structure or plot3d/structure.
