g

-

algebraic expression in at most one variable

opts

-

(optional) equation(s) of the form option=value where option is one of compositionoptions, compositiontype, function1options and function2options; specify output options

Description

• 

The CompositionPlot(f, g) command displays a plot of the two given functions f and g and their composition g(f) or f(g).

• 

The optional parameters opts specify the desired options for the resulting plot.  The available options are:

  

 

  

compositionoptions = list

  

Specifies the plot options for the composition g(f) or f(g).

  

 

  

compositiontype = g(f) or f(g)

  

Specifies whether the composition is g(f) or f(g).  By default, the composition is g(f).

  

 

  

function1options = list

  

Specifies the plot options for f.

  

 

  

function2options = list

  

Specifies the plot options for g.

  

 

  

caption = anything

  

A caption for the plot.

  

The default caption is constructed from the parameters and the command options. caption = "" disables the default caption. For more information about specifying a caption, see plot/typesetting.
