Polyline Command

PolyLine[ <List of Points> ]

Creates an open polygonal chain (i.e. a connected series of segments) having the initial vertex in the first point of the list, and the final vertex in the last point of the list.

Note: The polygonal chain length is displayed in the Algebra View.

PolyLine[ <Point>, ..., <Point> ]

Creates an open polygonal chain (i.e. a connected series of segments) having the initial vertex in the first entered point, and the final vertex in the last entered point.

Note: The polygonal chain length is displayed in the Algebra View.

Note:

• It is possible, with version > 4, to create a discontinuous PolyLine.

Example: PolyLine[ (1, 3), (4, 3), (?,?), (6, 2), (4, -2), (2, -2)] yields f = 9.47 .
