Aspect ratio :

Setting the AspectRatio option changes the whole shape of your plot. AspectRatio gives the ratio of height to width.
Its
default
value is the inverse of the Golden Ratio — supposedly the most pleasing shape for a rectangle.
Automatic
determines the shape of the display area from the original coordinate system.
<%Mathlet MSPSetDefault[$$plotPoints, "25"] %>
Plot points :
" >
(The minimum number of points at which to sample the function)
Plot color (RGB color):
red part :
" > green part :
" > blue part :
" >
The values of the color parts must be between 0 and 1.
Background (RGB color):
red part :
" > green part :
" > blue part :
" >
Image size:
">
specifies that the image should have a width of x printer's points
