### A particular contour does not show up, even though it is in my list [duplicate]

Consider: f = Sqrt[9 - x^2 - y^2]; ContourPlot[f, {x, -4, 4}, {y, -4, 4}, Contours -> {0, 1, 2, 3}, ContourLabels -> All, ContourShading -> None] ...

### Plotting a line segment from the degenerate case of an ellipse [duplicate]

An ellipse degenerates into a line segment when the defining constant distance from the two foci is the actual distance between the two foci. The ellipse closes into a line segment. The following ...

### Plotting equipotentials gone wrong [duplicate]

I'm plotting the equipotential of the potential function: $$\phi(x,y,z):=\frac{1+x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}}{[\left(1+x^{2}+y^{2}+z^{2}\right)^{2}-4z^{2}]^{1/2}}$$ Mathematica code: ...

### Why does Mathematica use a dashed line for a contour line with this specific value? [duplicate]

I am trying to draw the contour lines of the following function, but I don't understand why the contour lines with value 0.5 and -0.5 are shown in dashed lines. $f(x,y)=\dfrac{xy}{x^2+y^2}$ ...

### How can I get an approximate contour plot from a 3D plot?

I have some larger square, Hermitian matrices, M, (dimension 20, say, much more than 4) with 2 independent variables, call them x and y. I can plot the eigenvalues as functions of x and y with: <...
