Hi, everyone. Let me explain what I wanted to do: First, I wanted to make a polar plot with angles from 0 to 90. I could do it by adopting the curvelinear grid demo ( http://goo.gl/kruXf ). And then I wanted to present the radius in log10 scale. But setting the plot command to semilogy or trying to set 'set_rscale('log')' all failed. Below I pasted the code that works for radius in linear scale.
