[proFit-list] parametric curves

Hi All,

Is there a simple way to plot a parametric curve? So, for instance:

from numpy import cos, sin
def lisajFigures(t, A, omega_a, B, omega_B):
	x = A*cos(omega_a*t)
	y = B*sin(omega_b*t)
	return x, y

Now, I am not interested in x vs t or y vs t, but x vs y. I can't think of a good way to do this other than to tabulate and plot the data… Is there something better?

Cheers
Chris
