How to add a marker line to the surface part of the green area and get rid of the black box lines on the top and right side？

lehaofeng — Tue, 30 Jan 2024 05:28:16 GMT

I need to draw an x between 2 and 4 to a shaded area, but have hit a snag, the surface part doesn't feel like there is a good way to do it, and I need to find the x coordinates of the point where the two lines intersect.

And how to get rid of the black box lines on the top and right side.

names default to here(1);

new window("Ex",
	gb=graph box(
		framesize(300,300),
		x scale(-6,6),
		y scale(0,20),
		double buffer,
		pen color(3);
		y function(x*x,x);
		pen color(4);
		Vline(2,0,4);
		vline(4,0,16);
		yfunction(x-2,x,max(4),min(2));
		yfunction(x-2.5,x,max(4),min(2));
		yfunction(x-3,x,max(4),min(2));
		yfunction(x-3.5,x,max(4),min(2));
		yfunction(x,x,max(4),min(2));
		yfunction(x-0.5,x,max(4),min(2));
		yfunction(x-1,x,max(4),min(2));
		yfunction(x-1.5,x,max(4),min(2));
		yfunction(x+0.5,x,max(4),min(2));
		yfunction(x+1,x,max(4),min(2));
		yfunction(x+1.5,x,max(4),min(2));
	)
);

Hi @lehaofeng ,

I don't actually get all you're asking. So let me help you with (I think your asking about) the black lines top/right:

Simply Right-Click in the Graph > Border > deselect 'Top' and 'Right'

Will give you this:

Hope this helps,

Florian

You might use a polygon instead with a colored fill pattern.

Names Default to Here( 1 );

// integration resolution
nSteps = 25;

// function range for AUC
xMin = 2;
xMax = 3;

// define function
fxn = Function( {x},
	Return( x:*x );
);

// define polygon along top
polyX = Index( xMin, xMax, 1/nSteps );
polyY = fxn( polyX );

// finish (close) polygon
polyX ||= Transpose( Matrix( Eval List( List( xMax, xMin, xMin) ) ) );
polyy ||= Transpose( Matrix( Eval List( List( 0, 0, 4 ) ) ) );

New Window( "AUC",
	Outline Box( "Plot",
		Graph Box(
			X Scale( -5, 5 ),
			Y Scale( 0, 25 ),
			Pen Color( "Black" );
			Y Function( fxn( x ), x );
			Fill Color( "Green" );
			Fill Pattern( "right slant light" );
			Polygon( polyX, polyY );
		)
	),
	Outline Box( "AUC",
		Table Box(
			String Col Box( "Method", { "Polygon", "Calculus" } ),
			Number Col Box( "Estimate", { Polygon Area( polyX, polyY ), 19/3 } )
		)
	)
);
