Will anyone create me a 99-gon?

[BoldAsLove]

I need to bring this in for math...can anyone do this for me...I know their is a way to do it on photoshop.

I can honestly say, without reservation, that I have absolutely no idea whatsoever what the OP is asking. "99gon" reminds me of Audiogon, which is a high-end audio/HT resale site.

99gon? Is that better than 98gon, but not as good as a 100gon?

OK, I'll bite.

A circle can express Infinity. That, I know. But, WTH is a 99gon? Is that another name for infinity? I see lots of "College cheering" going on here....is the 99gon a real math thing, or does it have something to do with hip kids and college football/cheerleaders?

A 99-gon is a polygon with 99 sides. You know what a pentagon looks like a hexagon...a heptagon....once you get beyond 9 sides I believe they just start referring to them as ##-gon

A 99-gon is simply a polygon with 99 sides, which, as was demonstrated, is virtually indistinguishable from a circle. After 12 or so it gets cumbersome to use all the Greek number prefixes, so we generally just use arabic numbers followed by "-gon."

OK, thanks for explaining. But...doesn't a circle cover 360 degrees? How do "gons" relate to degrees? I mean, if a 99 gon is a circle...why isn't it a 360-gon or something?

I am not a math major...can u tell?

 

[kirkaptain]

um.
some quick and dirty pseudocode:

float X[99], Y[99]
for (n=1 to n=99 step){
X[x] = Cos[2*pi/99*n]
Y[x] = Sin[2*pi/99*n]
}
Plot(X,Y)

Use your brain and a spreadsheet program...

Why couldn't she just ask for a 100 sided polygon? Hectogon!

A circle is a polygon with number of sides approaching infinity. A circle does not have 360 edges as would be in a 360-gon.

A 99-gon is not a circle. There are 99 sides all joined together...its just when you have so many siders it really looks like a circle.

fixed.

Pretty simple, though:
Column 1 = Series fill 1 to 99
Column 2 = Cos[2*pi/99* (Column 1)] fill down
Column 3 = Sin[2*pi/99* (Column 1)] fill down
Plot Column 1 vs Column2

Here, this will shed some light for the ignorant

The last sentence makes perfect sense. Thanks! I'm just a few classes away from my BS; one of classes I need is basic college math. Shows, I guess.
