Cylindrical coordinates 3D plot?

[Andrew Lentvorski]

This is a newb question (and I am a newb to Jupyter), but how do I make an interactive 3D plot with cylindrical coordinates?

Thanks.

Andrew,

That's far out of the scope of Jupyter. The scientific python ecosystem has several plotting packages, but I rarely work with them, so I hesitate to outright recommend one. However, MayaVI seems to be one that comes up in discussions often.

Just the knowledge that it's far out of scope will help to direct my search.

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

plotly could be another simple way to make an interactive 3d image, for example

```

import plotly.plotly as py

from plotly.offline import download_plotlyjs, init_notebook_mode, plot, iplot,iplot_mpl

import plotly.graph_objs as go

init_notebook_mode()

import numpy as np

r=np.linspace(0,3,101)

t=np.linspace(0,2*np.pi,101)

r,t=np.meshgrid(r,t)

x=r*np.cos(t)

y=r*np.sin(t)

f= np.sqrt(x**2+y**2)

surface = go.Surface(x=x, y=y, z=f,opacity=0.9)

data = [surface]

fig = go.Figure(data=data)

iplot(fig)

```

More examples, could be found in

Hope this do help to you
