Needs["Graphics`ImplicitPlot`"] ImplicitPlot[y^2 == x^3 + x + 1, {x, -2, 8}, {y, -10, 10}, PlotPoints -> 40]; Or we can make a parametric plot if we get the minimum value for x. xmin = x /. First@Solve[x^3 + x + 1 == 0] -(2/(3*(-9 + Sqrt[93])))^(1/3) + ((1/2)*(-9 + Sqrt[93]))^(1/3)/3^(2/3) ParametricPlot[ {{x, Sqrt[x^3 + x + 1]}, {x, -Sqrt[x^3 + x + 1]}}, {x, xmin, 6}, Frame -> True, Axes -> False] David Park djmp at earthlink.net http://home.earthlink.net/~djmp/ From: Berlid [mailto:jean_lee1998id at hotmail.com] To: mathgroup at smc.vnet.net Hello, everyone. Here, I want to draw elliptical curve something like y^2=x^3+x+1 in screen with Mathematica4, and I have tried ellipticExp and EllipticLog but in vain. Could anyone tell me in detail how to draw elliptical curves? thanks.
