Abstract

A simple mathematical theory is developed on the periodicity of elementary polar functions. The periodicity plays an important role in efficient plotting of some closed polar curves, without the excessive use of plotting devices and materials. An efficient plotting algorithm utilizing the periodicity is proposed and its implementation by a Mathematica program is introduced for a family of closed polar functions.
