/sci/ - Science & Math

Hi /sci/ excuse my ignorance i am a youngin' but I love math

OK, so when you graph a problem containing x and y
(for example "x/y")

the output at any point in the chart (any combination of (x,y cords) can be input to get an output
call z the output,

now use z to plot a 3d graph, you've warped a 2d graph into 3d space to visualize z.

pretty simple stuff so far, no problem

But..

what happens if I take a problem with x,y and z and want to plot the output of that.

(example x/y^z)

coords x,y,z

Can i see this in 4 dimensional space?
If not how can I plot it?

there just be a way, I am so curious to see this, I feel like there is so much hidden in the world beyond this dimensional constraint, I feel like so many mystery's of the way the world works will start to be unraveled, if I can just visualize this
