Curvipy - The Python package for visualizing curves and linear transformations in a super simple way

Overview

curvipy 📐

licence

The Python package for visualizing curves and linear transformations in a super simple way.

✏️ Installation

Install curvipy package with pip:

$ pip install curvipy

or clone the repository:

$ git clone https://github.com/dylannalex/curvipy.git

✏️ Basic usage

This is a simple use guide. You can see all curvipy functionalities at curvipy documentation.

📌 Drawing curves

To start drawing curves you need to create a GraphingCalculator object:

from curvipy import GraphingCalculator

graphing_calculator = GraphingCalculator()

curvipy let you draw parametrized curves and mathematical functions. Lets create and draw the square root of x function for this example:

def square_root(x):
    return x ** (1 / 2)

graphing_calculator.draw(square_root, (0, 25))  # We want to draw the function from x = 0 to x = 25

You can also accomplish the same result by defining the square root of x as a parameterized function:

def square_root(t):
    return t, t ** (1 / 2)

graphing_calculator.draw(square_root, (0, 25))  # We want to draw the curve from t = 0 to t = 25

📌 Linear transformations

curvipy provides a curves module which contains functions for modifying curves with linear transformations.

from curvipy import curves

📍 curves.transform_curve()

This function let you apply a linear transformation (specified as a matrix) to a parametrized curve. curves.transform_curve() returns the transformed curve.

Parameters:

  • curve: parametrized curve
  • matrix: linear transformation's matrix

The matrix is a tuple of tuples (or list of lists) which has the same structure as numpy arrays. A matrix
[ a b ]
[ c d ]
should be defined as:

matrix = ((a,b), (c,d))

Example:

matrix = ((1, 0), (0, -2))
graphing_calculator.draw(curves.transform_curve(square_root, matrix), (0, 25))

📍 curves.rotate_curve()

Rotates a curve anticlockwise by the given angle.

Parameters:

  • curve: parametrized curve
  • angle: angle in radians
    Example:
angle = pi / 4  # 90 degrees
graphing_calculator.draw(curves.rotate_curve(square_root, angle), (0, 25))

📍 curves.scale_curve()

Scales the given curve by the given scalar.

Parameters:

  • curve: parametrized curve
  • scalar: scalar for scaling the curve
    Example:
scalar = 2  # The function is going to be twice as bigger
graphing_calculator.draw(curves.scale_curve(square_root, 2), (0, 25))
Comments
  • Update Latex expressions

    Update Latex expressions

    Some changes might feel unnecessary, but I felt like it would be better to have those changes. Like the more conventional font for real number set or the extra line of explanation for linear transformation.

  • v1.1.0

    v1.1.0

    • Updated plotter:
      • 'curvipy.Plotter' now draws axes ticks and arrows (to indicate the axis direction).
      • Removed 'interval: curvipy.Interval' parameter of 'curvipy.Plotter.plot_curve()' and 'curvipy.Plotter.plot_animated_curve()' methods.
      • 'curvipy.Plotter.plot_vector()' can now display vector's components.
      • Created 'curvipy.PlottingConfiguration' and 'curvipy.AxesConfiguration'
        • Updated 'curvipy.Plotter' builder parameters to 'curvipy.Plotter(window_title: str = "Curvipy", background_color: str = "#FFFFFF", plotting_config: PlottingConfiguration, axes_config: AxesConfiguration)'.
        • Now 'x_axis_scale' and 'y_axis_scale' (defined at curvipy.AxesConfiguration') can take any real value (negative or positive) and default to one.
    • Updated vector:
      • Added vector, addition, subtraction, scaling and equality.
      • Created 'curvipy.Vector.place()' method which moves the vector to a specified set of coordinates.
    • Updated curves:
      • Removed 'interval: curvipy.Interval' parameter of 'curvipy.Curve.points()' method.
      • Added 'interval: curvipy.Interval' parameter to 'curvipy.Function' and 'curvipy.ParametricFunction' builder.
    • Updated documentation.

  • Show numbers on the x and y axes

    Show numbers on the x and y axes

    A few aspects to keep in mind:

    • Number shown depend on 'curvipy.Plotter.x_axis_scale' and 'curvipy.Plotter.y_axis_scale'.
    • Add a new 'curvipy.Plotter' attribute to indicate the quantity of numbers to be displayed on the axes.
    • Add a method 'curvipy.ScreenFacade' to display text on screen. This method will be used by 'curvipy.Plotter' to display the numbers on the axes.

  • Add vector addition and subtraction operations.

    Add vector addition and subtraction operations.

    Given the vectors $\vec{v}$ and $\vec{w}$, we want to compute $\vec{n} = \vec{v} + \vec{w}$ and $\vec{m} = \vec{v} - \vec{w}$ as shown below:

    import curvipy
    
    v = curvipy.Vector([10, 10])
    w = curvipy.Vector([5, -5])
    n = v + w
    m = v - w
    

    This is not possible on Curvipy 1.0.1. To do so, users have to calculate $\vec{n}$ and $\vec{m}$ manually:

    import curvipy
    
    v = curvipy.Vector([10, 10])
    w = curvipy.Vector([5, -5])
    n = curvipy.Vector([10 + 5, 10 + (-5)])
    m = curvipy.Vector([10 - 5, 10 - (-5)])

  • Add an 'exclude' parameter to 'curvipy.Interval'

    Add an 'exclude' parameter to 'curvipy.Interval'

    The idea is to exclude a list of values from the interval, so they won't be considered when plotting the curve.

    curvipy.Interval:
        Parameters
        ----------
        start : int or float
            Real number in which the interval starts.
        end : int or float
            Real number in which the interval ends.
        samples: int
            Number of values within the interval. The more samples, the more precise the \
            curve plot is.
        exclude: list[int or float]
            List of values that will be excluded from the interval.
    

    Example: imagine we want to plot the curve $f(x) = 1/x$ on the interval $x \in [-a, a]$. Since $f(0)$ is not defined, the current way of doing that is to create two intervals:

    import curvipy
    
    
    def f(x):
        return 1 / x
    
    
    plotter = curvipy.Plotter()
    
    a = 10
    curve = curvipy.Function(f)
    interval_one = curvipy.Interval(-a, -0.1, 100)
    interval_two = curvipy.Interval(0.1, a, 100)
    
    plotter.plot_curve(curve, interval_one)
    plotter.plot_curve(curve, interval_two)
    plotter.wait()
    

    With an 'exclude' parameter on 'curvipy.Interval' class, we could accomplish the same goal with only one interval:

    import curvipy
    
    
    def f(x):
        return 1 / x
    
    
    plotter = curvipy.Plotter()
    
    a = 10
    curve = curvipy.Function(f)
    interval = curvipy.Interval(-a, a, 200, exclude=[0])
    
    plotter.plot_curve(curve, interval)
    plotter.wait()
    

    If somebody wants to work on it, please make a comment. Implementing this is not as easy as it seems and might need modifications in other classes like curvipy.Plotter and/or curvipy.Curve.

    A rotation function

    A function that rotates the curve by a certain $\theta$ angle. The implementation is easy, it will take $\theta$, and the curve as input, and method is just like TransformedCurve, but the matrix used will be:

    $$A(\theta)=\begin{pmatrix} \cos\theta & -\sin\theta\ \sin\theta & \cos\theta \end{pmatrix}$$
