3D plots are generated from data defined as Z=f(X,Y), with Plot3D[] being the main code. Contour plots represent a 3D surface by plotting constant z slices called contours on 2D, drawing lines connecting (x,y) coordinates with the same z value. ContourPlot[] is the main code, and examples can be found in Mathematica files.

2. 3D plotting
• 3D plot are generated from data defined as Z=f(X,Y).
• As for 2D plots, there are many ways to obtain a 3D plot depending on the way the
(X,Y,Z) values are defined.

4. Contour plot
Presentation title
A contour plot is a graphical technique for
representing a 3-dimensional surface by
plotting constant z slices, called contours, on
a 2-dimensional format. That is, given a
value for z, lines are drawn for connecting
the (x,y) coordinates where that z value
occurs.
