So I tried plotting an annulus in two ways:
RegionPlot[Annulus[{0,0},{a,b}]]
Graphics[Annulus[{0,0},{a,b}]]
Why does RegionPlot give a fractal looking thing? (see below for when a=1; b=5;)
*note, I used wolfram programing lab.

@IonSme I guess they just use different defaults for plotting; the Graphics result is "normal-looking" though.

There are some subtle differences going on how Mma showsRegion
s andRegionPlot
Graphics
. AlsoRegion
s can be defined analytically viaImplicitRegion
orParametricRegion
or as 'flat'MeshRegion
s.DiscretizeRegion
converts every type to aMeshRegion
and some functions likeRegionPlot
might use something similar toDiscretizeRegion
under the hood to make plotting easier, whose discretization it for some reason decides to show. Like others wrote you can useImplicitRegion
to get a different (not discretized) look in your case.

a = 1; b = 5;
Please try plotting with Region[]
. These look okay to me:
Region[RegionDifference[Disk[{0, 0}, b], Disk[{0, 0}, a]]]
Region[Annulus[{0, 0}, {a, b}]]
Here is a decent plot, with RegionPlot
:
RegionPlot[x^2 + y^2 > 1 && x^2 + y^2 < 25, {x, -6, 6}, {y, -6, 6}]
Here it is (again) with Graphics[]
:
Graphics[{LightBlue, Annulus[{0, 0}, {a, b}]}]
