===== CIRCLE ✓ =====

===== SYNTAX =====
     CIRCLE [x], [y], r[, c]
     CIRCLE x, y, rx, ry[, c]

==== PURPOSE ====


The ''CIRCLE'' command in BASIC draws a circle on the screen. In other words, it defines 
a complete circle based on the coordinates and radius that you specify. 

This command allows you to draw a circle with starting coordinates in ''(x,y)'' 
and radius ''r''. The color is indicated by the parameter ''c''. If the abscissa 
and/or ordinate is omitted, the last graphic position drawn will be used. In 
addition, the color can also be omitted and, if necessary, the last color set with the 
''PEN'' or ''INK'' command will be used. 

There is also another additional syntax, that can be used 
to draw ellipses: you can give both the radii ''rx'' and ''ry'' in the color determined 
by ''fq'' (see ''HIRES''). 

The accuracy of the circle depends on the resolution of your screen. Lower-resolution screens 
may display less sharp circles.



==== EXAMPLE ====
    ' Draw a circle
    CIRCLE 100,100,42
    ' Draw an ellipse
    CIRCLE 100,100,21,42
    CIRCLE ,,21,RED
