When plotting a function using Plot, I would like to obtain the set of data points plotted by the Plot command.
For instance, how can I obtain the list of points {t,f} Plot uses in the following simple example?
f = Sin[t]
Plot[f, {t, 0, 10}]
I tried using a method of appending values to a list, shown on page 4 of Numerical1.ps (Numerical Computation in Mathematica) by Jerry B. Keiper, http://library.wolfram.com/infocenter/Conferences/4687/ as follows:
f = Sin[t]
flist={}
Plot[f, {t, 0, 10}, AppendTo[flist,{t,f[t]}]]
but generate error messages no matter what I try.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
