I am trying to plot the following curve. It has 3 leaves, each leaf is identical and 120 degrees apart. It is traced as shown in the attached numbers.
My attempt is $r(\theta)=1-0.6\sin(3\theta)$ but I have no idea how to adjust it to resemble the curve above.

@UlrikeFischer I am interested in your comment I just do not knwo what to do with it. I checket the documentation but could not find anything that helps me how to change the appearance of field in cite-commands -- in fact, I do not understand why the cite-command does not use the appearance of a field if that field has been declared with \DeclareFieldFormat -- I mean I declared the field with this command, did I not?
@ClintEastwood Don't confuse fields and formats. A field can be printed with various formats. The bib uses the title format to print the field title, but cite commands of authortitle uses the citetitle format for the title field. So you need to do \DeclareFieldFormat{citetitle}{whatever}.
@UlrikeFischer But would that not make all titles conform to "whatever", i.e. also those that should not? In other words, \DeclareFieldFormat misses an element; I seem to need something like \DeclareFieldFormat{citetitle}{pub-type}{whatever}
Hello everyone i am looking help for this answer tex.stackexchange.com/questions/391701/…. I am new to dealing with LaTex, so need help can anyone please suggest me how to use the given answer. Actually i have data coming from database in following format "hello world [7.\overline 7 ]" so please suggest me where i have configure the given answer so that i achieved the required.
@CreatedBylucky hard to see how that question or answer relates to your text? the \[ there is a command to start math but your [ is just text that you want displayed isn't it?
@CreatedBylucky missing out the braces from \overline is a bit suspect but it's legal syntax so:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{document}
hello world $[7.\overline 7 ]$
\end{document}
@DavidCarlisle as i mentioned i am new to deal with Latex so sorry i am unable to get you like what is this \documentclass{article} \begin{document} \end{document}
@DavidCarlisle for your knowledge i am converting mathematics equation with the help of MathType software so i can read it from doc file like when i convert the equation then it looks like [\frac{1}{{1\frac{1}{4}}} + \frac{1}{{6\frac{2}{3}}} - \frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{{10}} = \frac{{11}}{{12}},] What if the value of X?. Now in this case when i retrieving data form data base it shows mathematics equation in one line and string text in second line but i need both equation and string in same line.
@CreatedBylucky mathjax just emulates a small part of the math syntax of latex but doesn't use tex at all it is pure javascript code, so for mathjax you just need what you have with the inline \(..\) or display \[...\] latex is a document typesetting system and does a lot more than mathematics, dealing with sections page breaking indexes etc. Mathjax is mostly off topic on this tex question and answer site, except in so far as the syntaxes overlap so some questions apply to both mathjax and tex
@DavidCarlisle got it Thanks. Need one more suggestion when i am converting it with mathType software it produces \[...\] so i need to replace this pattern with \( ... \) ?
@PauloCereda While I certainly agree on the sentiment, it's hard to think of an appropriate term, given the ubiquity of the latin alphabet in so many domains.
@AlanMunn -- quite possibly they were contributors, but i think there probably wasn't even a need for such terminology before the general adoption of movable type. the advent of the computer only made the terminology more necessary.
@AlanMunn -- thanks for link. i saw it in passing, but hadn't read it. (i agree with the sentiment expressed in the title. it's already difficult enough to persuade the unicode guys to accept attested "variant" math symbols and scripts for "minor" languages, and with the likely decrease in real estate, that's only going to get a lot more difficult.)
@barbarabeeton I also remember reading something about how sensible it is that Chinese takes up an enormous portion of the code points, but I can't find it.
@AlanMunn -- at least with the chinese situation, there is a long tradition of material in print. i've never quite known how the chinese dealt with their enormous repertoire using their telegraph code, which had space for only 10,000 items. similar problem. (and in another realm, there has been a question about one of the max values assigned to a counter in tex; turns out that it's based on the 36-bit word length of the decsystem 10 and 20 computers. computer archaeology is already at work.)
@barbarabeeton Yeah, it's funny how some of these things arise and then get passed on without any knowledge of why. Just like language change.
@barbarabeeton If you look at the comments on the article, there's a totally stupid comment that for some reason the NYT has "picked". There's a really funny reply to it: "Please stop." :)
@DavidCarlisle someone asked about autofootnoterule with reledmac (that's what I deduced) so I chopped their MaximalNonWorkingExample to an MWE about that
and then I realized their problem was that they used footnote instead of RTLfootnote
@AGoldMan ? I have no idea, but if you edited someone else's question and now think that edit was wrong you should revert the edit first rather than waiting for an acceptance I would think.
@DavidCarlisle well, i decided to submit another edit which adds back in the actual problem. Just wasn't sure what needs to be peer reviewed before being accepted
@AGoldMan oh sorry you mean edit acceptance, I thought you meant that you were waiting for the answer to be accepted before editing the question again... I tend to forget about the "submit/review edit" stuff as I don't think I ever edited any question until I had enough rep to not need review:-)
Which book (free or otherwise) was the most useful to you when you started learning LaTeX?
I am frequently asked this question by friends who want to learn LaTeX, and I recommend the book which got me started, The Not So Short Introduction to LaTeX2ε, but I feel that there might be better option...
