Add Legend Label to Polar Plot

Open Live Script

Create a polar plot of cosine powers rotated in 30° increments. Generate a legend label for this plot.

az = [0:359]';
a1 = abs(cosd(az).^5);
a2 = abs(cosd(az - 30).^5);
a3 = abs(cosd(az - 60).^5);
a4 = abs(cosd(az - 90).^5);
P = polarpattern([a1,a2,a3,a4],'Style','filled');
createLabels(P,'az = %d#deg',0:30:90)
