Polar plots

Polar plots are generated by changing the current coordinate system to polar before issuing a plot command. The option set polar tells gnuplot to interpret input 2D coordinates as angle,radius rather than x,y. Many, but not all, of the 2D plotting styles work in polar mode. The figure shows a combination of plot styles lines and filledcurves. See set polar (p. [*]), set rrange (p. [*]), set size square (p. [*]), set theta (p. [*]), set ttics (p. [*]).
