What's the "hat" drawing on the side of the plotter?
Gotta be the 3D plot with hidden line removal of the "Mexican hat" function,
sin(r)/r where r = sqrt(x**2 + y**2).
I didn't figure out hidden line removal until my freshman year in college!
I think it was the same trip to the shower that finally revealed why
