Expand description

Generates a 3D a surface (or wireframe, or both)

Example

use plotpy::{Plot, StrError, Surface};
use russell_lab::generate3d;

fn main() -> Result<(), StrError> {
    // generate (x,y,z) matrices
    let n = 21;
    let (x, y, z) = generate3d(-2.0, 2.0, -2.0, 2.0, n, n, |x, y| x * x - y * y);

    // configure and draw surface + wireframe
    let mut surface = Surface::new();
    surface.set_colormap_name("seismic")
        .set_with_colorbar(true)
        .set_with_wireframe(true)
        .set_line_width(0.3);

    // draw surface + wireframe
    surface.draw(&x, &y, &z);

    // add surface to plot
    let mut plot = Plot::new();
    plot.add(&surface)
        .set_title("horse saddle equation") // must be after add surface
        .set_camera(20.0, 35.0); // must be after add surface

    // save figure
