Singular Manual: plotRotatedList

| #### D.9.4.3 plotRotatedList Procedure from library `surfex.lib` (see surfex_lib). Usage: plotRotatedList(list varieties, list coords, list #) This opens the external program surfex for drawing the surfaces given by varieties, seen as a surface in the real affine space with coordinates coords. The optional int parameter can be used to set plotting quality. Assume: coords is a list of three variables, varieties is a list of ideals describing the varieties to be shown. The basering is of characteristic zero and without parameters. Example:
    LIB "surfex.lib";
    "Example:";
    // A cubic surface together with a tritangent plane
    // (i.e. a plane which cuts out three lines).
    ring r = 0, (x,y,z), dp;
    poly cayley_cubic = x^3+y^3+z^3+1^3-1/4*(x+y+z+1)^3;
    poly plane = 1-x-y-z;
    plotRotatedList(list(cayley_cubic, plane), list(x,y,z));
    // The same cubic and plane.
    // The plane is not shown but only its intersection with the surface.
    plotRotatedList(list(cayley_cubic, ideal(cayley_cubic, plane)), list(x,y,z));
