I would like a means to view patterns in 2-dimensional matrices using a 3-d utility, for example, the residual patterns from a statistical model fit. Such a matrix is row x columns of numbers above and below zero. It would be really great to be able to display this matrix as 3-d bars (one for each cell) and then be able to rotate it to search for any subtle patterns.
I have had an initial look at OpenGL and it looks like it could provide the means to do this but it is at initial glance a bit daunting to venture into. So before plunging in, I thought I'd enquire the forum to see if anyone has already done this. Comments?
