| Jun 16, 2012 at 23:20 | comment | added | Dr. belisarius | @jens Thanks for the pointer, I love this part: Would you really want to argue that high school students, or freshman students in college, should have to first go through a tutorial in Hold and Evaluate (and maybe also HoldAll, HoldFirst, NHoldAll, HoldAllComplete, HoldRest, SequenceHold, Extract,and Unevaluated) before they could start plotting Lists using Plot? | |

ContourPlot[] and Table[] both have the HoldAll attribute, so the Evaluate[] is needed.
