3D Graphing mode #2113

The Casio CG50 features a 3D graphing mode. Although clunky to use, it has proved a barrier to Numworks adoption in some colleges we have spoken to.

A 3D graphing mode in which lines, planes etc. could be drawn and intersections could be seen would be very useful. Particularly if it included features such as showing the normal to the plane and plotting vectors.

Thanks for your issue. We are not thinking of developing a 3D graphics application for epsilon in the short term, as the navigation interface would not necessarily be relevant. I let your issue open because it's something we could improve in the future. Could you please provide some resources (exercises) to help us understand the need?

Useful for linear algebra and working in R^3.

An alternative solution could be fixing one of the dimensions "z" and overlaying a series of 2D graphs with a predefined set steps of the "z" dimension.
