I have an application where I am hoping to plot a region inside a parametric curve, and I need the plot to be fairly close up to the curve, however this seems to have a staircasing effect on the curve. I have plotted an example below which shows the staircasing, (I have increased the line width to help the problem be visible). Is there a way to smooth this out? Refining the discretization doesn’t seem to help. I understand that the curve is discrete and won’t look perfect, but any suggestions are welcome!
t = linspace(0,2*pi,100);
x =cos(t) + 0.65 * cos(2 * t) -0.65; y = 1.5 * sin(t);
