Is it possible to make an animation based on a math equation for a curve in
Power Point?
Suppose we have a horizontal rectangle. We have points A(x1,y1) on the left
and B(x2,y1) on the right side of the rectangle. Can we connect points A and
B with a curve given by a function, say of the type
y=a*sin(g*x(t)) + b*cos(h*x(t))
(where a, b, g, and h are constants and t is a variable to be incremented in
a loop) and fill the upper and lower parts (above and below the curve) with
different colors?
In another words:
(question 1) can draw a curve following a math formula and
(question 2) if so, will the curve close a shape formed by a part of the
rectangle and the curve such that the upper and lower parts of the rectangle
could be filled with different colors.
Finally, the most important (question 3): is it possible that a piece of
code incrementing t and updating the shape is executed, such that an
animation is created with the line oscillating in the slide show mode?
I feel competent with the math involved and am somehow familiar with VBA. My
questions are if things like that are possible in PP and if so, where should
I look for more info. If anybody could direct me to a book, web site or
whatever, I will appreciate it very much.
Thanks,
