It is sufficient, but I am not sure whether those examples are a good way to start. If you want to get acquainted with Asymptote, I suggest that after setting it up you take a minimal example like the following #+begin_src asymptote :file result-figure.pdf size (8cm, 0); #+end_src and then use various sources such as the ones below to explore and learn: - Charles Staats' Asymptote tutorial https://asymptote.sourceforge.io/asymptote_tutorial.pdf - Asymptote manual https://asymptote.sourceforge.io/asymptote.pdf - Art of Problem Solving forums, which use Asymptote as their built-in graphics language, e.g. https://artofproblemsolving.com/community/c5h2782914_another_hexagon_problem (click on a diagram to see the corresponding Asymptote code). see also https://artofproblemsolving.com/wiki/index.php/Asymptote:_Getting_Started All the best, Jarmo
