Jerzy,
I really do not wish to get into an argument with you. This seems to happen
every time you come onto this mailing list. If "winning" this argument is
so important to you, then you may have it. I will not continue to split
hairs with you.
Thank you for mentioning the concept of implicit sur

Find me a single plotting library that can do differently without

Hi Jerzy and Ben,
Thanks for you answers!
I must say that although Ben is right in principle, Jerzy's answer is
exactly what I was looking for. Even if matplotlib can't do it by
itself, there appears to be other libraries that do the heavy lifting
and return a set of triangles which can then

Kerpedjiev, who wants to plot (with Matplotlib) the surface of an
implicit surface (at least it was his presented example).
Your comment "of course, plotting a sphere can be done in spherical
coordinates" is actually the right tho
Generally speaking, a plottable 3D surface can be represented
parametrically in 2D (hence why it is a surface). Your point cloud can not
be represented parametrically in 2 dimensions, hence why you are having
difficulty figuring out how to plot it as a surface. I used to have similar
problems with
