Hi everybody, I'm currently reading the Mathematica Guidebooks for Programming and I was trying to work out one of the very first program of the book. Basically, when I run the following program:
Plot3D[{Re[Exp[1/(x + I y)]]}, {x, -0.02, 0.022}, {y, -0.04, 0.042},
PlotRange -> {-1, 8}, PlotPoints -> 120, Mesh -> False,
ColorFunction -> Function[{x1, x2, x3}, Hue[Arg[Exp[1/(x1 + I x2)]]]]]
either I get a 1/0 error and e^\infinity error or, if I lower the PlotPoints options to, say, 60, an overflow error. I have a working output though, but it's not what it's supposed to be. The hue seems to be diffusing off the left corner whereas it should be diffusing of the origin (as can be seen on the original output)
Here is the original program which apparently runs on Mathematica 5 (Trott, Mathematica Guidebook for Programming):
Off[Plot3D::gval];
Plot3D[{Re[Exp[1/(x + I y)]], Hue[Arg[Exp[1/(x + I y)]]]},
{x, -0.02, 0.022}, {y, -0.04, 0.042},
PlotRange -> {-1, 8}, PlotPoints -> 120, Mesh -> False]
Off[Plot3D::gval];
However, ColorFunction used this way (first Plot3D argument) doesn't work and so I tried to simply adapt to its new way of using it.
Well, thanks I guess!
