3123  * @class
3124  * From <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit_curve">Wikipedia</a>:
3125  * "An implicit curve is a plane curve defined by an implicit equation
3126  * relating two coordinate variables, commonly <i>x</i> and <i>y</i>.
3127  * For example, the unit circle is defined by the implicit equation
3128  * x<sup>2</sup> + y<sup>2</sup> = 1.
3129  * In general, every implicit curve is defined by an equation of the form
3130  * <i>f(x, y) = 0</i>
3131  * for some function <i>f</i> of two variables."
3132  * <p>
3133  * The partial derivatives for <i>f</i> are optional. If not given, numerical
3134  * derivatives are used instead. This is good enough for most practical use cases.
3135  * But if supplied, both partial derivatives must be supplied.
3136  * <p>
3137  * The most effective attributes to tinker with if the implicit curve algorithm fails are
3138  * {@link ImplicitCurve#resolution_outer},
3139  * {@link ImplicitCurve#resolution_inner},
3140  * {@link ImplicitCurve#alpha_0},
3141  * {@link ImplicitCurve#h_initial},
3142  * {@link ImplicitCurve#h_max}, and
3143  * {@link ImplicitCurve#qdt_box}.

3146  * @name ImplicitCurve
3147  * @param {Function|String} f Function of two variables for the left side of the equation <i>f(x,y)=0</i>.
3148  * If f is supplied as string, it has to use the variables 'x' and 'y'.
3149  * @param {Function|String} [dfx=null] Optional partial derivative in respect to the first variable
3150  * If dfx is supplied as string, it has to use the variables 'x' and 'y'.
3151  * @param {Function|String} [dfy=null] Optional partial derivative in respect to the second variable
3152  * If dfy is supplied as string, it has to use the variables 'x' and 'y'.
3153  * @param {Array|Function} [rangex=boundingbox] Optional array of length 2
3154  * of the form [x_min, x_max] setting the domain of the x coordinate of the implicit curve.
3155  * If not supplied, the board's boundingbox (+ the attribute "margin") is taken.
3156  * For algorithmic reasons, the plotted curve mighty slightly overflow the given domain.
3157  * @param {Array|Function} [rangey=boundingbox] Optional array of length 2
3158  * of the form [y_min, y_max] setting the domain of the y coordinate of the implicit curve.
3159  * If not supplied, the board's boundingbox (+ the attribute "margin") is taken.
