Purpose
To deep practice Scatterplot3d package .Helix

> par(mfrow = c(1, 1))
> library(scatterplot3d)
> z <- seq(-10, 10, 0.01)
> x <- cos(z)
> y <- sin(z)
> scatterplot3d(x, y, z, highlight.3d = TRUE, col.axis = "blue",
+     col.grid = "lightblue", main = "Helix", pch = 20)

Adding elements

Bivariate Normal Distribution uses persp plot and scatterplot3d

> library(mvtnorm)
> x1 <- x2 <- seq(-10, 10, length = 51)
> dens <- matrix(dmvnorm(expand.grid(x1, x2), sigma = rbind(c(3,
+     2), c(2, 3))), ncol = length(x1))
> s3d <- scatterplot3d(x1, x2, seq(min(dens), max(dens), length = length(x1)),
+     type = "n", grid = FALSE, angle = 70, zlab = expression(f(x[1],
+         x[2])), xlab = expression(x[1]), ylab = expression(x[2]),
+     main = "Bivariate normal distribution")
> for (i in length(x1):1) s3d$points3d(rep(x1[i], length(x2)),
+     x2, dens[i, ], type = "l")
> for (i in length(x2):1) s3d$points3d(x1, rep(x2[i], length(x1)),
+     dens[, i], type = "l")
