          By convention, for 2-dimensional figure


          y-axis is vertical and x -axis is horizontal one.


          But you can use x - axis as vertical and y -axis as horizontal one as well.


          For 3-dimensional figure, there is no certain specification, where to put the axes.


          So, for 3-dimensional figure, it can be anywhere.
