danaleeling: Cubic bezier sine wave in SVG
http://danaleeling.blogspot.com/2015/07/cubic-bezier-sine-wave-in-svg.html
Musings and notes around and about learning. Wednesday, July 22, 2015. Cubic bezier sine wave in SVG. In the past I generated the Scalable Vector Graphics path for a sine wave by using a sine function and inputting x values. This summer I found that a cubic bezier could generate a cosine curve using just the points at the crest and trough, with control points at 0.1875*wavelength and 0.3125*wavelength. Those values were visually determined, not mathematically obtained. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
