Is there a way to make 3D plots like in matplotlib #609
Description
I am looking for a library to plot 3d points in space and it seems this is the only active plotting library.
I found this:
https://medium.com/@Arafat./introducing-glot-the-plotting-library-for-golang-3133399948a1
Which appears to be built on top of the predecessor to this but it is woefully out of date and I am having issues with it.
Is there a way to use this library to plot 3d datapoints?
I can't find any in the examples

glotinvokes thegnuplotbinary to do its thing.gonum/plotdoes everything in Go.(so... not the predecessor, they don't have -AFAIK- any common lineage)
right now, there isn't a way in
gonum/plotto directly draw 3D plotters.3D plots may be pretty, but on a dead tree sheet of paper, they usually are rather hard to interpret.
(I suppose that they are slightly more useful with an interactive 3D plotter, where the plot can be manipulated over the 3 axes, zoomed in/out, etc... but AFAIK gonum/plot doesn't provide this either (yet?))

yesterday, I stumbled on this package:
it could (perhaps) be a good basis to add 3D support to gonum/plot.
(but that's still a fair amount of work, though.)
