This is the signal I hope to create: https://sphotos-b.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash4/s480x480/2049_10151353534278810_133123559_n.jpg both the frequency of the blue wave and the frequency of the red rider wave are adjustable. I came up with the equation for the wave using vector calculus, but it is unlikely that the math decoder can crunch out a signal in real time at the press of a key. x(t) = t + (6*cos(t))*(0.5*(sin( 25*sin(t) ))*(1/((1+36*((cos(t))^2))^.5))) y(t) = 6*sin(t) - (0.5*(sin( 25*sin(t) ))*(1/((1+36*((cos(t))^2))^.5))) any ideas?

It doesn't loop back on itself, so you're going to have a difficult time drawing that on an X-Y plot. Tim -- Deep Friar: a very philosophical monk.

The waves with a knot in them are the most difficult. Try an xy scope :-)

(Jon: signals and functions are closely related. If your signal isn't a function in time, then it's not a signal, either. That "signal" has more than one value of y for most values of x. So while it is a valid curve, as plotted it isn't really a signal). -- My liberal friends think I'm a conservative kook. My conservative friends think I'm a liberal kook.

You need to think very carefully about what it is you are trying to do. The parametric curve in t of x(t), y(t) exists but if a slice for constant T0 cuts that curve in several places you have a big problem. -- Regards, Martin Brown
