27.13.6  Graph of parametric equations in space

The paramplot command can draw a parametric surface in ℝ3 (see Section 19.7.2 for a full description).

paramplot can take two arguments; a list of three expressions involving two parameters and a list of the parameters (possibly with bounds), and it returns and draws the parameterized surface.

Example

paramplot([u*cos(v),u*sin(v),u],[u,v])
