Abstract
An important part of the Maple system is its ability to display functions graphically. This provides the user with a tool for visualizing information about a function. By just glancing at a picture of a function, one can see its zeros, local minima and local maxima, as well other interesting properties. Maple provides the plot command and the plot3d command for graphing functions of one variable and two variables respectively.
