Hi,
I generated a flower image like this:
    d = sqrt((x0-x)^2 + (y-y0)^2)
    r = Constant*[cos(angle)]^2......................imp.
    if (d <= r) { HIGH value} else{LOW value}
this gives me a flower image.
i would like to generate a smooth sine wave pattern
around the circle..... The wavy circle should go in and out..
Is there a std. equation of this curve  ?
thanks.
jas
