[Maxima-discuss] Fun example of the adaptive plot routine

[Gunter K. <gu...@pe...>]

Dear all,

Not a bug - and arguably not even avoidable. But this week I found a fun 
example of the adaptive plot routine creating an alias effect:

draw2d(

     explicit(sin(x*81),x,1,10)

)$

Changing the "81" slightly sometimes causes a bit weirder-looking 
results. And as always if you know that this is an aliasing effect 
changing nticks works around it.

Kind regards,

   Gunter.
