On the left, a circle with black dots evenly distributed along the outer perimeter has lines of equal opacity but varying color connecting each dot with all the others. On the right, a second circle with black dots along its perimeter has brown lines connecting each dot to the others. The lines are fainter when the connected dots are more separated.

An illustration on the left shows a multicolored cloudlike oval centered in a square with its bottom side labeled X and its left side labeled P. Three lines pass through the oval at different angles. Above the oval, a red vertical line points to a red curve in a box labeled 90°. To the right of the oval, a blue horizontal line points to a blue curve in a box labeled 0°. At the top right corner of the oval, an orange diagonal line points to an orange curve in a box labeled 45°. A 3D graph on the right has an x-axis labeled X, and a y-axis labeled P, with both axes spanning values from −3.4 to 3.4. A vertical axis is labeled W(X,P) and spans from 0 to 0.2. A smooth, contoured bump is plotted on the graph with its highest vertical point centered where X and P are zero.
