Lesson 24: Plotting Functions in Three
Dimensions
There are six different plot types that can be used to help you
visualize functions of two variables. Some of these only plot the given
function within a region in 3-dimensional space, called the View
Volume, defined by ranges on each of the three coordinate axes.

The View Volume
The other important parameter for three-dimensional plotting is the
eyepoint, the point in space from which you are viewing the View
Volume. The eyepoint determines the way that the View Volume is
projected onto the two-dimensional plotting display.
