Hi,

I wish to draw a hypoellips curve and for this I will use and equation where the "square root" is a part. But it shall be posible to take root expressed by a real
The ground equation is
x^a + y^a =1
For the curve could this be expressed as follow
x = t
z = 0
y = (1 - (x)^a ) -^a

for bescribing y I wish the correct syntax instead of -^a.

Thanks
 
I'm not sure what you want, but I think you are looking for x^(-y) and what is the same 1/(x^y). Tow forms to write the same
 
Hi Pascual

I had found a solution.

Thanks for the reply.
