Objective Questions
-------------------
1. Draw a plot of cosine graph between -2pi to 2pi with line thickness 4
Answer::
x = linspace(-2*pi, 2*pi)
plot(x, cos(x), linewidth=4)
2. Draw a plot of the polynomial x^2-5x+6 in the range 0 to 5 in blue dotted
line
Answer::
x = linspace(-2*pi, 2*pi)
plot(x, x**2 - 5*x + 6, 'r.')
3. Which marker is used to get circles
a. '.'
#. '^'
#. 'o'
#. '--'
4. What does the '^' marker produce
Answer: Triangle up marker
5. How do you set the title as x^2-5x+6 in LaTex style formatting
Answer: title("$x^2-5x+6$")
6. What happens when the following code is executed::
xlabel("First label")
xlabel("Second label")
Answer: The label of x-axis is set to "Second label"
7. Read thorugh the documentation and find out is there a way to modify the
alignment of text in the command ``ylabel``
a. Yes
#. No
Answer: No
8. How to add the annotation "Maxima" at the point (1, 2)
Answer: annotate("Maxima", xy=(1, 2))
9. Is the command ``annotate("max", (1, 2))`` same as ``annotate("max",
xy=(1, 2)``
a. True
b. False
Answer: True
10. When a new annotation is made at a point, what happens to the old one
a. It is replaced
b. It is overwritten
c. The new annotation is combined with old one
Answer: It is overwritten
11. What happens when xlim is used without arguments
Answer: It gives the current limits of x-axis
12. What happens when ``ylim(0, 5)`` is used
Answer: It sets the lower and upper limits of y-axis to 0 and 5
13. Draw a cosine plot from 0 to 2*pi with green dots. annotate the origin as
"origin" and set x and y labels to "x" and cos(x) and x limits to 0 and
2pi and y limits to -1.2 and 1.2
Answer::
x = linspace(0, 2*pi)
plot(x, cos(x), 'g.')
annotate("origin", (0, 0))
xlabel("$x$")
ylabel("$cos(x)$")
xlim(0, 2*pi)
ylim(-1.2, 1.2)
