I have a simple Mathematica question, and I am not sure where to post it, so I'll just try to post it here. I am trying to graph the intersection of the planes y=3 and z=5 in 3D coordinates, but am not sure how.
That works. As one additional question, how would I graph the curve ##x^2 + z^2 = 9## in three dimensions? Do I have to parametrize it, or can I use that equation directly?Orodruin said:ParametricPlot3D[{x,3,5},{x,-10,10}]
Exchange the 10s for whatever suits your plotting range.
Mathematica is a software program that allows for mathematical and scientific calculations, data visualization, and programming. It can be used for a variety of tasks such as solving equations, creating graphs, and analyzing data.
To perform basic calculations in Mathematica, you can use the built-in symbols for arithmetic operations such as +, -, *, and /. You can also use functions such as Sin, Cos, and Exp for trigonometric and exponential calculations. Simply enter the expression in the input bar and press Shift+Enter to evaluate it.
Yes, Mathematica has powerful built-in functions for creating various types of graphs and visualizations. You can use the Plot function to create 2D graphs, the Plot3D function for 3D graphs, and the ListPlot function for plotting data points. You can also customize the appearance of your graphs using various options.
You can save your work in Mathematica by using the File menu and selecting Save or Save As. This will save your notebook as a .nb file, which you can open and continue working on later. You can also export your work as different file types, such as PDF or HTML, by using the Export function.
Yes, there are many resources available to learn more about Mathematica. You can access the built-in documentation by pressing F1 or using the Help menu. There are also online tutorials, forums, and user communities that can provide support and guidance for using Mathematica.
