stat-function
Sample fun at n points across x-limits and emit (x, y) rows.
x-limits defaults to (0, 1). Pass x-limits: none to fall back to the layer’s own data: the min and max of the values referenced by mapping.x are used as sampling bounds. If neither x-limits nor numeric data is available the stat panics with a helpful message.
Usage
stat-function(
fun: x => x,
n: 101,
x-limits: (0, 1),
)Parameters
| Parameter | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
fun |
x => x |
Callable taking a numeric x and returning a numeric y. |
n |
101 |
Number of samples taken uniformly across the range. |
x-limits |
(0, 1) |
Pair (lo, hi) bounding the sampling range, or none to derive from data. |
Returns
Statistic object with name: "function", consumed by geom layers.
Outputs
x.y.
Examples
Sine sampled across x-limits and rendered as a line.
#let frame = ((x: -calc.pi, y: -1), (x: calc.pi, y: 1))
#plot(
data: frame,
mapping: aes(x: "x", y: "y"),
layers: (
geom-blank(),
geom-line(stat: stat-function(
fun: x => calc.sin(x),
x-limits: (-calc.pi, calc.pi),
)),
),
width: 10cm,
height: 6cm,
)
The string form stat: "function" resolves to the constructor defaults (fun: x => x, n: 101, x-limits: (0, 1)). In practice the constructor form is always required because fun must be supplied.
#let frame = ((x: 0, y: 0), (x: 6.28, y: 1))
#plot(
data: frame,
mapping: aes(x: "x", y: "y"),
layers: (
geom-blank(),
geom-point(
size: 2pt,
stat: stat-function(fun: x => calc.cos(x), n: 13, x-limits: (0, 6.28)),
),
geom-line(stat: stat-function(fun: x => calc.cos(x), n: 201, x-limits: (0, 6.28))),
),
width: 10cm,
height: 6cm,
)
