Symbolic Computation
Parametric curves are representations of curves in which the coordinates of the points on the curve are expressed as functions of a variable, often referred to as a parameter. This allows for a more flexible description of curves that might be difficult to define using standard Cartesian equations. By defining both x and y coordinates independently with respect to a parameter, complex shapes and paths can be easily represented and analyzed.
congrats on reading the definition of parametric curves. now let's actually learn it.
