%C A198866 Suppose that f(x,u,v) is a function of three real variables and that g(u,v) is a function defined implicitly by f(g(u,v), u, v) = 0. We call the graph of z=g(u,v) an implicit surface of f.
%C A198866 For an example related to A198866, take f(x,u,v) = x^2 + u*sin(x) - v and g(u,v) = a nonzero solution x of f(x,u,v)=0.  If there is more than one nonzero solution, care must be taken to ensure that the resulting function g(u,v) is single-valued and continuous.  A portion of an implicit surface is plotted by Program 2 in the Mathematica section.
