3d plotting software for vectors

In summary, the conversation is about finding an easy-to-use 3d plotting software that is capable of plotting vectors and performing transformations. The speaker mentions using Maple, but finds it to be slow for these tasks. They also mention liking Geogebra, but it can only handle 2d vectors. The conversation ends with a suggestion to check out educational software and a website that may be helpful for 3d transformation matrices on vectors.

does anyone know an easy to use 3d plotting software with vectors? i have been using maple for some things but 3d plotting vectors and transformations is really slow in maple. i really like geogebra but it can only do 2d vectors. any suggestions?

ok thanks i will take a look at those. i am doing the 3d transformation matrices on vectors and the algebra is quite nasty. it is hard to figure out once there are a few matrices. i have no idea if the results are correct without a drawing or picture.

cheers
