I've been a Matlab user for years and have recently started using Python with matplotlib and NumPy for most of my work. The only thing I found that is still lacking is a 3D capability in matplotlib. I was trying to visualize a hill climbing algorithm and I couldn't find anything comparable to Mat

I have a suspicion it is the collaborative effort that is the problem here -- I try to use Python whenever possible for engineering/numerical analysis, but the established industry standard (for most disciplines of engineering) is still MATLAB. Although Python is arguably better in most respects,

I'm afraid I can't be very helpful to you, but you could be most helpful to some of us. Can you elaborate on what specifically you found difficult? In some circles Python is regarded as a direct competitor to Matlab. Your preference for Python for "other things than standard mathematical work" in
