Here is a cardiod:

 
x(t) = ((1 + cos(t)) cos(t)) i ,
y(t) = ((1 + cos(t)) sin(t)) j :

Here is a space cardiod:

x(t) = ((1 + cos(t)) cos(t)) i ,
y(t) = ((1 + cos(t)) sin(t)) j , 
z(t) = sin(t)  k:

Where did the cusp go?

Note: If you have access to Mathematica on your machine, you may want to set Netscape preferences so that file extension "ma" points to Mathematica. This can be found under "helper apps". Note however, that you need a lot of RAM to do this.

If you do not have Mathematica, you can read the following files with Math Reader , downloadable from Wolfram Research
