Hi Sergio,

Blender (Blender.org) would be a quirky choice from the 
standpoint of seeking merely a decent inline plotting utility, 
such as bokeh or matplotlib.  I've used the latter a lot, the 
former a little. Blender would be vast overkill if 2D plots 
were the only interest.

Since I came to Python (from dBase) seeking 3D geometry 
tools, I've been in the neighboring world of Python + POV-Ray
(povray.org), the free ray tracing program, driven by its own 
Scene Description Language.  I'd build my vectors, edges 
and polyhedrons in pure Python, but have them write out to 
POV-Ray in SDL. [1] 

A similar strategy is followed by Antiprism (C++ polyhedron 
utilities). [2]

Sometimes equation plotting happens inside a more CAD
like context, such as when using bezier curves to delineate 
motion.

We also see a bright future for the "physics engine" don't we?
Including 2D ones for kids such as Codesters.com (Python
in the cloud, used in middle schools by me). You get to turn
"gravity" on or off, and/or "bouncy walls". Collision detection...

Visual Python (VPython) has been a major tool for me
as well [3], letting me bypass the ray tracer and go straight 
to a VRML like experience (OpenGL). This has been a 
project of the Physics Community from the beginning.
We've discussed it here a lot on edu-sig. A guy named 
Arthur was using it for an ambitious projective geometry
package.

In recent Youtubes I'm not looking at Python much at all, 
but at React + three.js integration.  Just pointing out how 
WebGL itself is a theme here, whatever the tool stack.

Common themes in my echo chamber (silo) are 3D 
rendering and animation.  Python is getting stronger 
in this area.  Blender is Python driven. [4]

Hi Kirby,
 
In terms of plotting, I would go with matplotlib
as it is updated as python is updated. I have had
bad times when using something else. I am unaware of
Blender, but I'll look around. Any particular feature
over matplotlib?
