Contour Plot and Surface Plot

Topic(s): 
Graphing Multivariable Functions
Allows users to display both contour plots and surface plots of functions \(z=f(x,y)\). Users can customize which level curves are shown when creating contour plots; when plotting the surface users can adjust the minimum and maximum values of the domain variables.
