Hi All I'm a new user of Mathematica.The problem is that I started using Mathematica from the middle not the beginning. Anyway, My problem is: I have two Matrices Temperature= T = [Ax8] Radial position = RR = [1x8] as an example, let A=1, instead of Plotting T vs. RR at xy-axes, I want to map the data in a cylinderical Coordinates as a contour mapping, whic means I need to "copy" my data to N times. My proposed procedure is to do the following: Generate a position matrix, [x,y], as follows: Do [x,y] RR=0,1,.145, Theta = 0,360,M ( M is the step 360/N) x = RR*Cos(theta) y = RR*Sin(theta) and T=T @ RR I would like to know: 1. if this is the easy way to do it ? 2. How can translate it to Mathematica Code? Hopefully it is clear! Thank you in advance! Othman
