ABSTRACT

In Chapter 6 we studied maple’s basic plot functions plot, and plot3d, as well as the plots package. There are a few more packages used for plotting and creating graphics. They are DEtools, plottools, geometry, geom3d, and statplots. See Section 8.7.1 for the plotting functions in the DEtools package. statplots is part of the stats package that we will examine in Chapter 16. In this chapter we will concentrate mainly on the plottools, geometry, and geom3d packages.
