The equation of n-gon

If the use of the absolute function |x| was allowed, it is possible that we give a equation for n-gon by

  equation20

where the tex2html_wrap_inline117 is a periodic function in the period tex2html_wrap_inline119 which is defined in the domain tex2html_wrap_inline121 (Note thus tex2html_wrap_inline123 .) Though I hope to have simpler expression than this, this is the simplest expression so far that I can give you. This expression gives you a n-gon under the ideal precision of calculation, since the infinite precision would be required for the calculations at the vertexes.
