I am just beginning for plotting 4d plots which I couldn't do using spreadsheets.

I have four columns of data.

First three columns are independent variables and 4th column is dependent on all three.

I am trying to plot how the fourth column value varies depending on these 3 variables. I want to plot a surface from first 3 variables and color gradient the variation of the 4th column. If I use plot_surface option, i get error as

ValueError: Argument Z must be 2-dimensional

Is there any way I can plot like mentioned above?
