Parameters
|
|
F

(optional) 'Vector'(algebraic); parametric definition of the space curve
|
t
|
-
|
(optional) name; define parameter of the space curve

Description
|
|
•
|
The SpaceCurveTutor command launches a tutor interface that plots and animates the characteristics of a space curve such as: tangent vectors, normal vectors, binormal vectors, unit tangent vectors, unit normal vectors, unit binormal vectors, tangent-normal-binormal frame, curvature, and torsion.
|
|
If F and a..b are not specified, SpaceCurveTutor uses defaults. If t is not specified, it is inferred from F.
