surf: Visualization of algebraic curves, algebraic surfaces and hyperplane sections of surfaces¶
Description¶
surf is a tool to visualize some real algebraic geometry: plane algebraic curves, algebraic surfaces and hyperplane sections of surfaces. surf is script driven and has (optionally) a nifty GUI using the Gtk widget set.
This is used by the Singular Jupyter kernel to produce 3D plots.

Equivalent System Packages¶
opensuse:
$ sudo zypper install surf-alggeo
