rotate — rotation of a set of points
xy1=rotate(xy,[theta,orig])
| xy | : matrice of size (2,.). | 
| xy1 | : matrice of size (2,.). | 
| theta | : real, angle en radian; default value is 0. | 
| orig | : center of the rotation; default value is [0;0]. | 
rotate performs a rotation with angle theta:
xy1(:,i) = M(theta) *xy (:,i) + orig
where M stands for the corresponding rotation matrix.
xsetech([0,0,1,1],[-1,-1,1,1]) xy=[(0:0.1:10);sin(0:0.1:10)]/10; for i=2*%pi*(0:10)/10, [xy1]=rotate(xy,i); xpoly(xy1(1,:),xy1(2,:),"lines") end
