I have two 3D-points, for example a = (100, 100, 10) and b = (0, 100, 60), and would like to fit a line through those points.
I know, the 3D line equation can have different shapes:
Vector-form:
(x,y,z)=(x0,y0,z0)+t(a,b,c)
Parameter-form:
x=x0+ta y=y0+tb z=z0+tc
But I have a problem getting the data in the right shape for a numerical function.

Answer
The following code should work
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt fig = plt.figure() ax = plt.axes(projection ='3d') # defining coordinates for the 2 points. x = np.array([100, 0]) y = np.array([100, 100]) z = np.array([10, 60]) # plotting ax.plot3D(x, y, z) plt.show()
Here the ax.plot3D()
plots a curve that joins the points (x[i], y[i], z[i])
with straight lines.
