Abstract:

Techniques used to plot contours in the package <PLOT> are described. Aside from its using traditional interpolation formulas, <PLOT> is characterized by taking pairs of triangles rather than rectangles for primitive domains, and for tracing out one entire contour before starting another, to minimize pen raising and lowering.
