[R] What is the best way to plots surfaces in 3 dimensions?
Hi R help,
What is the best way to plots surfaces in 3 dimensions?
I also have the following availability problem with "plot3d" and
"scatterplot3d", and "wireframe":
install.packages("scatterplot3d")
Warning: unable to access index for repository
http://cran.ch.r-project.org/bin/macosx/leopard/contrib/2.10
Warning message:
In getDependencies(pkgs, dependencies, available, lib) :
package ‘scatterplot3d’ is not available
install.packages("plot3d")
Warning: unable to access index for repository
http://cran.ch.r-project.org/bin/macosx/leopard/contrib/2.10
Warning message:
In getDependencies(pkgs, dependencies, available, lib) :
package ‘plot3d’ is not available
wireframe(volcano, shade = TRUE,
+ aspect = c(61/87, 0.4),
+ light.source = c(10,0,10))
Error: could not find function "wireframe"
Sincerely, Andrea
