3D Plot Help

1. Enter z as a function of x and y.

2. Drag to rotate the camera around the surface.

3. Scroll to zoom in/out.

4. Use camera presets for quick orientation changes.

Wave Surface

Smooth periodic surface with peaks and valleys.

z = sin(x)*cos(y)

Paraboloid Bowl

Simple upward-opening quadratic surface.

z = (x^2 + y^2)/8

Saddle

Hyperbolic paraboloid with positive and negative curvature.

z = (x^2 - y^2)/10

Ripple Wireframe

Radial ripple pattern shown in wireframe mode.

z = sin(sqrt(x^2 + y^2))
