Mathematica: Compare 3D Graphs with Plot3D Command

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on using the "Plot3D" command in Mathematica to compare two 3D graphs by visualizing their differences. A user inquired about the appropriate command to show the difference between two graphs, and the solution provided involves defining a new function that calculates the difference between the two original functions. The user successfully implemented this by defining the new function as c = a - b, where a and b represent the original functions.

Can't you just make a new function which is the difference of your other two functions and then plot it via plot3d?

Here's some examples of using plot3d

Thank you so much, this is something I needed. and I defined a new function which is difference of my two first function, like this (( a:= my first function and b:=my second function & c=a-b )) . I hope it works now.
