Drawing geometric figures - the result of airplane travel.

The example script shows the use of canvas and geometric figues (regular, convex polygons) with different number of edges based on trigonometric functions.

Class Canvas is a simple convenience wrapper for the tk canvas, which packs itself.

nx::Class create Canvas {
  :property {canvas .canvas}
  :property {bg beige}
  :property {height 500}
  :property {width 500}

  :method init {} {
    canvas ${:canvas} -bg ${:bg} -height ${:height} -width ${:width}
    pack ${:canvas}
  }
}

Class Area provides a center point (x, y) and a radius

nx::Class create Area {
  :property {canvas .canvas}
  :property {x 250}
  :property {y 250}
  :property {radius 200}

  :variable pi [expr {acos(-1)}]

  :method degree {d} {
    #
    # return a coordinate pair on a circle around the center point with
    # :radius at the provided degrees (0..360)
    #
    set x  [expr {$d*${:pi}/180.0 - ${:pi}/2.0}]
    set x0 [expr {cos($x)*${:radius}+${:x}}]
    set y0 [expr {sin($x)*${:radius}+${:y}}]
    list $x0 $y0
  }

  :method n-tangle {n} {
    #
    # Draw a regular n-tangle (e.g. when n==3, a triangle) inscribed to
    # a circle with radius :radius
    #
    for {set i 0} {$i < $n} {incr i} {
      set p($i) [:degree [expr {$i*360/$n}]]
    }
    lassign $p(0) x0 y0
    for {set i 1} {$i < $n} {incr i} {
      lassign $p($i) x1 y1
      ${:canvas} create line $x0 $y0 $x1 $y1
      lassign $p($i) x0 y0
    }
    lassign $p(0) x1 y1
    ${:canvas} create line $x0 $y0 $x1 $y1
  }
}

Class Inscribe draws multiple n-tangles with the came center point.

nx::Class create Inscribe -superclass Area {
  :property {count 4}
  :property {edges 3}
  :method init {} {
    for {set i 0} {$i < ${:count}} {incr i} {
      ${:canvas} create oval \
          [expr {${:x}-${:radius}}] [expr {${:y}-${:radius}}] \
          [expr {${:x}+${:radius}}] [expr {${:y}+${:radius}}]
      :n-tangle ${:edges}
      set :radius [expr {${:radius}/2.0}]
    }
  }
}

Class Hull creates an n-tangle with :density hull lines between neighboring edges

nx::Class create Hull -superclass Area {
  :property {edges 3}
  :property {density 10}

  :method n-tangle {n} {
    for {set i 0} {$i < $n} {incr i} {
      set p($i) [:degree [expr {$i*360/$n}]]
    }
    lassign $p(0) x0 y0
    for {set i 1} {$i < $n} {incr i} {
      lassign $p($i) x1 y1
      set line($i) [list $x0 $y0 $x1 $y1]
      ${:canvas} create line $x0 $y0 $x1 $y1
      lassign $p($i) x0 y0
    }
    lassign $p(0) x1 y1
    ${:canvas} create line $x0 $y0 $x1 $y1
    set line(0) [list $x0 $y0 $x1 $y1]
    set line($n) [list $x0 $y0 $x1 $y1]

    for {set i 0} {$i < $n} {incr i} {
      lassign $line($i) x0 y0 x1 y1
      lassign $line([expr {$i+1}]) x2 y2 x3 y3
      set dx1 [expr {($x0 - $x1)*1.0/${:density}}]
      set dy1 [expr {($y0 - $y1)*1.0/${:density}}]
      set dx2 [expr {($x2 - $x3)*1.0/${:density}}]
      set dy2 [expr {($y2 - $y3)*1.0/${:density}}]
      for {set j 1} {$j < ${:density}} {incr j} {
        ${:canvas} create line [expr {$x0-$dx1*$j}] [expr {$y0-$dy1*$j}] \
            [expr {$x2-$dx2*$j}] [expr {$y2-$dy2*$j}]
      }
    }
  }

  :method init {} {
    :n-tangle ${:edges}
  }
}

Draw either one larger figure with inner figures or a series of smaller figures next to each other.
