When plot or plot3d is passed a set or list of functions, it plots all of these functions on the same graph.

When a list of three functions is passed to plot3d, Maple displays a 3-D parametric plot.  For more information, see plot3d.  To avoid this, add the three functions as a set.

When a list of functions is plotted, options may be associated with each function.  Options are specified as option=[value1, value2, ..., valuen] with one value for each curve plotted.

Unless otherwise specified, the curves are colored using the current list of plotting colors (see plots[setcolors]).

$\mathrm{plot}\left(\left[x-\frac{x^3}{3}\,\sin \left(x\right)\right]\,x=0..1\,\mathrm{linestyle}=\left[\mathrm{dot}\,\mathrm{dash}\right]\right)$

$\mathrm{plot}\left(\left\{\exp \,\ln \right\}\,-\mathrm{\infty }..\mathrm{\infty }\,\mathrm{color}=\left[''DarkGreen''\,''CornflowerBlue''\right]\right)$

$\mathrm{plot}\left(\left\{x\,\left[t^2\,t\,t=-1..1\right]\right\}\,x=0..1\right)$

$\mathrm{plot3d}\left(\left[\cos \left(x\right)-2\cos \left(0.4y\right)\,\sin \left(xy\right)\right]\,x=-10..10\,y=-1..1\,\mathrm{style}=\left[\mathrm{PATCH}\,\mathrm{PATCHNOGRID}\right]\,\mathrm{shading}=\left[\mathrm{DEFAULT}\,\mathrm{ZGRAYSCALE}\right]\,\mathrm{lightmodel}=\mathrm{light1}\right)$
