Hi all,

I wonder if someone here can help me. I don't know too much about
Mathematica, but I need to draw a clothoid, aka as Euler's spiral.

The equations are something like this ...

x = Integrate[Cos[s^2],s]
y = Integrate[Sin[s^2],s]

... but I don't know how to go from there.

Any help greatly appreciated!
