FCIRCLE

The FCIRCLE command in BASIC draws a circle on the screen and fill it. In other words, it defines a complete circle based on the coordinates and radius that you specify, and it will draw it as it was filled.

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.
