Hi, In sage-2.9.2 Robert and I unfortunately didn't have time to add anything to the tutorial, constructions or reference manual about actually using the new plotting functionality. These are the new plotting commands (see below):
bash-3.2$ ./sage ---------------------------------------------------------------------- | SAGE Version 2.9.2, Release Date: 2008-01-05 | | Type notebook() for the GUI, and license() for information. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------- sage: import sage.plot.plot3d.all as p sage: p. p.arrow3d p.line3d p.plot3d p.tetrahedron p.cube p.list_plot3d p.plot3d_adaptive p.dodecahedron p.octahedron p.point3d p.icosahedron p.parametric_plot3d p.sphere They all have docstrings with examples and work in both the notebook and command line as long as you have java on your computer. -- William On Jan 5, 2008 7:16 AM, mabshoff <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hello folks, > > Sage 2.9.2 has been released.
