In an introduction to multivariable calculus, the graph of a function of more than one variable should be sliced to help you understand it and its partial derivatives.
The graph of a multivariable function can be sliced to help you understand it and its partial derivatives.

In some ways, multivariable calculus seems like a minor extension of single-variable calculus ideas and techniques. In other ways, it’s definitely a major step up in difficulty.
