I sent an e-mail to Darrel earlier today listing my 3 preferred chunks to write. I got my third choice, which is fine. So, my brief is:
CHUNK 55
TITLE Polynomials
DESCRIPTION Describe the general form of quadratic and cubic polynomials and show how they can be drawn using the techniques in Greenberg 262--267. Describe a simple program that shows the various curves that are generated by such polynomials
OUTCOME
  • Describe the general form of a polynomial
  • Develop code that draws a particular polynomial.
REFERENCE Greenberg 262-267
HINT Keep the programs simple.
PROGRAM No program required.
