| It is conventional to use capital letters (X,Y) for the matrix output of meshgrid from small letter (x,y) vector inputs. Observe how the output matrices X varies left to right, along the x axis, and Y varies up and down, along the y axis. Together they provide x,y, coordinates for a grid of points on the x,y plane in the region $-2 \leq x \leq 2$, $-3 \leq y \leq 3$. | It is conventional to use capital letters (X,Y) for the matrix output of meshgrid from small letter (x,y) vector inputs.
