                    Ellipse

                    Reading time: 1min

                    Constructs an ellipse. The equation of an ellipse with center at point (c1,c2) with axes parallel to x- and y-axis is

                    ellipse(Real, Real, Real)
                    

                    Description

                    Given two reals a and b and a point C, constructs an ellipse with semi-major axis a, semi-minor axis b and center C.

                    Given two reals a and b and a vector v, constructs an ellipse in the direction of v, with semi-major axis a, semi-minor axis b and center the origin.

                    Given two reals a and b, constructs an ellipse with semi-major axis a, semi-minor axis b and center the origin.

                    Given two reals a and b, a point C and a vector v, constructs an ellipse in the direction of v, with semi-major axis a, semi-minor axis b and center C.

                    Given two reals a and b, a point C and a real ω, constructs an ellipse in the direction given by the angle ω, with semi-major axis a, semi-minor axis b and center C.

                    Given three reals a, b and ω, constructs an ellipse in the direction given by the angle ω, with semi-major axis a, semi-minor axis b and center the origin.
