How do I make a cylinder with base (2,0,1) and radius 2?

Also how do I assign heights?

Answer 1

[Mohammad Abouali]

use [x,y,z]=cylinder(radius)

where radius=2; Then to move the base to (x0,y0,z0)=(2,0,1) and also make the height of the cylinder to be h=10 do this

% Radius =2
R=2;

%Base at (2,0,1)
x0=2;y0=0;z0=1;

% Height = 10
h=10

[x,y,z]=cylinder(R)

x=x+x0;
y=y+y0;
z=z*h+z0;

% to plot
surf(x,y,z)
