Hello,
I could use some help with plotting.
I need to plot the intersection of three cylinders:
x^2+y^2=1
z^2+x^2=1
y^2+z^2=1

it's really hard to visualize how this shape looks like, and I need to plot it.
I was told that I should use Mathematica, but I'm not too familiar with all the options there...

I will be more specific: I need to plot the faces of the set:
{ (x,y,z): x^2+y^2<=1 and z^2+x^2<=1 and y^2+z^2<=1 }

can anyone help me?
thanks,
Gili
