Parameterized surfaces in rectangular coordinates are given by equations of the form x = f (s, t), y = g(s, t) and z = h(s, t). These are very general and allow you to generate a wide variety of interesting plots.
To plot a parameterized surface
The parameterized surface defined by the equations
x | = | s sin s cos t | |
y | = | s cos s cos t | |
z | = | s sin t |

Although Patch produces high-quality graphics, certain surfaces, such as the one here, can be easier to visualize in WireFrame.
