Should the label be sin(n x)?

What is the horizontal axis? The title says “n=“ and specifies a constant. The vertical axis, labeled “sin(n)” should, then, be a constant. I’m confused.

i see.. yea the horizontal axis is n .. the label at the top should really say n_{max}

You can set pixel color by the value; I’ve also done contour plots, though it is difficult to generate the contours. The resulting patterns in either case are very interesting. The frequency of the oscillation increases as one moves away from the origin ==> undersampling/aliasing
